Default Damn P1515 code keeps giving me REDUCED ENGINE POWER!

Any ideas as to why this code keeps coming up on the DIC and giving me "Reduced Engine Power Mode" and "Service Traction Soon" It does it everytime I put the car into reverse after I take a trip down the 1/4 mile after spraying.

General Motors P1515 Electronic Throttle System Throttle Position

This what the code means, but I can't help with why.

If you have a TPS switch for your Nitrous then that is probably the culprit.
But why are you putting it into reverse at the end of the 1/4mile :)
