Default C5 Traction Control & ABS

I have a 2000 Corvette Convertible. Any time that I "drive aggresively" (i.e. floor it on an open road), my ABS/Traction Conrol warning comes up. When this happens, the traction control is definitely disabled. I've pulled the codes and the only thing that seems somewhat relevant is 28-TCS: C1243. Any thoughts?

You need to exercise the pump motor. Lots of post on the procedures. Good luck...

I did search the code and everything I was seeing had to do with the ABS pump. The users reporting the issue who had success with exercizing the pump were experiencing issues with their ABS and not necessarily their Traction Control, so I wasn't sure if they were related. I will give that a try to see if it helps out my situation. Thanks for the advice.
