Default TCS?

So, the first '97 I bought to build (which was subsequently totaled) did not have TCS ... my new '97 does. Is there a way to permanently disable this that complies with the "ECU and programming must remain stock" rule, or do I have to remember to turn it off all the time?

I thought I saw a reference to traction control in an earlier rule set, but I'm not seeing it now.

Thanks!

Power a toggle switch to turn off relay for it, leave it in off position, until it rains if you feel the need.......

Keep it and turn it off every time. When it rains, it will be a somewhat help, but more importantly, most cars don't have it so it's an advantage. My car has it and last year we did 3 wet races and each time I qualified the car up front. Maybe traction control helped, maybe not. But who cares, it worked!!!
