If you mean traction control then no it hasn't. It has a torque limiter in the first two gears but that is removed if you bluefin it. No idea on Ins Grp, I just pay the premium!
new ST is 17 if you want to compare. And i think the old ST170 was a group 15.

They don't JUST spin, the torque steer on mine is fucking horrendous on most surfaces to the point of being dangerous.
I now have forearms like Popeye.

Seriously, I had an Astra GSi turbo before this, and the TC was a complete cunt - one of the reasons I didn't go for an ST or VXR - RS is far more raw.
4X4 is the only logical answer I'm 'fraid!
