Default Stutter

If I try to do a boosted launch my truck will stutter for about a 1/2 second then goes like hell. It has no trouble building boost it is only when I let off the brake and floor it that it will stutter. If I just floor it I have no issues. Also no issues driving. Has anyone encounted this, if so how do I get around it?

Without running a Smarty its probably your Torque Management kicking in. This is built into the Trucks Computer to save the auto transmission.
