I like to be the one driving my car, not a computer.

Very true
But, wouldn't Comp mode still have the active handling, or whatever, still active? Comp mode only eliminates the traction control feature, right?

Yes that is correct. I can't stand the way the car falls flat on heavy acceleration. Do you know of a way to do this?

I think you want it all OFF then not COMP mode.

LOL, no, I want the default setting to be competition mode. I can then switch to off or full tc.

Could just trade it in for a '70 LT-1
I dont know though. My guess is either a programming thing if it is even possible. One consideration would be that if you wrecked it, would the insurance company give you trouble with the claim.

Laptrax made a module that did exactly what you are looking for. They aren't being made anymore so you would have to pick one up used.

That sounds like more of a torque management issue rather than AH/TCS. Torque management can be adjusted with a tune.
