Default What does this mean?

I was driving my car today and on the cluster i had a message that said, ACTIVE HANDLING WARMING UP. Does anybody know what that means, or why it said it? I checked the codes and nothing was there, I shut the car off and restarted it and about 2 min. later it came back on, so I cut it off again and it never came back on... It is a 02 Z06 if that matters. Any info would help
Thanks...

It is normal. There should be a short description in your owner's manual, but it is nothing to worry about. It is a self diagnostic test that periodically runs, usually on or shortly after a cold startup.

IT means the sensor detected slippage in one of your wheels immediately after start-up and it put itself into a diagnostic mode to ensure it wasn't faulty...
