Some similar postings describe an issue with CPS

Also, a posting here with BAS ESP light and acceleration issue indicated a wiring harness issue with throttle body.

One more for your....points at possible vacuum line issue. Owner had broken connector to inter cooler.

I haven't had this happen in awhile, but while testing at the track, I have had the throttle pedal come unhinged and ride up on the mounting. This will result in less that full throttle. I know this isn't your problem but may be a problem in the future if you do many full throttle launches. Might try a throttle reset. See if it helps.

I remember a post where something like this happened because of tire sizes, what size tires do you have and are they all the same diameters side to side?
