Well, this is not 100% true, either. Turbos are not tied to the engine speed like a centrifugal blower is. A lot of turbo engines have gobs of torque at extremely low rpm.
Oh, and you cannot ever fully turn it off (somebody else can correct me if I am wrong about this).
Drag Mode and Sport Mode are different.
Track Mode is different again.
When you select Drag Mode, it neuters the traction control (it does not fully go away). I have confirmed in person that...

This car is 486 with active exhaust, a full 500 in my Dark Horse.
This car would have been legendary had it come out in 1968. It would have absolutely trounced any muscle car. I have published...

Your Dad needs to be slapped, hard.
First for getting a 15 year old a car like this, and again for encouraging you to pull this stunt on a public street last night.
Since your Dad is not responsible enough, then you should be aware that racing in Florida is up to one year in jail, a $1000...
