You mentioned launch/traction earlier. Isn't that more than the ECU? So you will incorporate the ABS sensors as well. I assume no yaw, that's left to the old gray matter.
Car companies don't need people with this specific skill set, in general.

Yes, the ECU ties into the CAN bus so it should technically be able to read wheel speed from the ABS system. I don't desire yaw control, only for the computer to manage front-rear wheel speed differential with a method that doesn't create a bunch of turbo lag.
