Living in the great northwest, I get the opportunity to utilize the wet traction control on a regular basis...worst part is washing the car and detailing the wheels after any wet weather driving! I can say without a doubt my car would still run in the 13's in the wet-when you pin it from a stop and feel/hear the ESP working, it is a trip-things spin/happen left, things spin/happen right, then you get pinned in the seat until 2nd gear change, then things start happening left & right, then pinned into the seat 'till 3rd! For all the shortcomings of the Crossfire, having the ESP for wet conditions is a definite plus (now if I could just get it to shut off entirely when I wanted)!
