Unhappy DCS light went on,some info help pls.

Well i was driving "spirted:D " like some of you call it only in a straight line and red lining up to like 7600 rpm's under a quarter mile. I forgot when but i saw the DCS light FLASH only for like couple sec's then disappeared when i got to the stop light. Does that mean anything?

From: now... 818 area code
Seriously, read your owner's manual for an explanation of DCS and what the "flashing" means...

You have read your owner's manual, right?

This would be the little skidding-out-car in the tach area? If it flashes it generally means TCS/DSC is doing something to counteract possible wheelspin or sliding (I've only ever noticed it when the brakes get used, not just throttle control). Nothing to get too worked up about. I've seen it when changing from 2nd to 3rd after blasting up to red-line in 2nd also.
