    Yes, the 2011s have a "Sport Mode" to the traction control/stability settings. It's documented in the 2011 GT500 Supplement if you want details. Stop, press and hold brake, tap TC twice = Sport Mode.

    the sport mode will come on when you press the traction control button twice quickly whie in neutral. you don't have to step on the break twice. the dash readout will say "sport mode on"when it engages.

    thats how it works on my 2011 gt500.
