Abstract
Systems and methods for stabilizing a vehicle during a traction control event are disclosed. Signals indicative of wheel speed and velocity of the vehicle may be received at a controller of the vehicle and compared to determine wheel slip. Based on the wheel slip, the controller determines whether a burnout condition exists. A damping force of at least one damper associated with a suspension of the vehicle may be adjusted when a burnout condition is detected.
