Default 100mph Wheelspin

Hi I'm new to owning a mustang and have put few mods on already the latest being Lund tune. Which brings me to my question in normal mode I gunned the 5.0 from around 20mph and stated to spin and snake thinking it would grip and launch eventually I carried on looked at the Speedo and although not travelling at 100mph it was showing this, should the Tracktion control kicked in at this point ??? I'm not sure if it was flashing and not willing to retry at this point to 're create has anyone else done this and is it normal practise in normal driving mode ????

Wheel Hop/Wheel Spin, normal. Get use to and Adjust your Driving or upgrade your Suspension/Traction, CTRL Arms etc.

If you have an automatic, it would have had to shift through some
gears to read 100MPH with the wheels still spinning. IF you have
a manual, well, that's got to be an error, you'd have blown the engine,
spinning in first gear to 100MPH. I mean, unless you continued to
shift it, continually spinning the wheels...
