Traction on, however I find I react quicker than the traction control does.
The main problem is feeding enough power without spinning up the tyres.
On a surface where I could give full throttle all through 1st gear I reckon
I could reduce the time by 1/2sec or so.

The Snowdon Mountain Railway springs to mind, but not much else......

Possibly, but I think Millbrook testing ground would be better.
