What does it feel like when asr kicks in. Does it push back on the throttle pedal?

That makes me feel better went around a corner today and hit the gas and the pedal pushed back and at first I thought something was broke or worn out. Then got to thinking about the ASR and wanted to check on here cause I have never delt with a traction control system like that.

I don’t like it. My first thing I do after starting my car is hit the ASR off button…

I don't like it either. I was also annoyed by having to remember to turn it off every time I started the car. So I came up with a relay circuit that automatically turns it off for me. I can still turn it on/off with the button.

Ign power, ground, and crank signal are "tapped", but the wires not cut. The brown wires from the relay are the 'button' circuit in an off-screen connector.
