Competitive Driving, and TPMS

I plan on using my stock wheels, which have no TPMS sensors in the for a track event next Monday. Does anyone know if I will be able to activate competitive driving mode without them?

'02 Coupe

Thanks!
Erik

I would assume so, as competitive driving is an option on the Z-it does not have LTPWS-

TPMS has no relation to Comp driving mode.

GM didn't relate the two until the C6 came out. With TPMS being mandated in new cars you can't override them anymore due to liability issues.
