It's not unusual. My BS went into limp mode before and I had a Eurocharged tune. I called them and they say they've replace a few BS with bad gas pedal. Although my car ended up with a fuel line problem and not related to the pedal. But yes it has happened before.

Also , a track day with ESP off is so much more fun . I used to a little nervous because I didn't want to over do something and slide .however when I was forced to drive with it off ,I drove better and way more fun

Going to track this weekend . But so far it does seem that the esp limp mode was caused from a faulty accelerator pedal module . On the scanner it would read out of range at wot so then putting the car in limp mode . I'll get to test it this weekend . But this problem seemed to have happened for a few others as well . Also the o2 sensors since there is long tubes on the car now we're not reading enough heat to turn the o2 heater off . So I just need to move the front two closer to motor , no big deal . I'll inform back from track this weekend if the limp mode happened again

Just finished a long two track days , no issues with limp mode . Seems the accelator pedal module was the problem , it's replaced and works much better . No sure of brand LT . Evosport put them in
