2000 ES300 Trac Off, but no CEL
2000 ES300 that just crossed over 70k miles.
I was driving to work this morning and it was wet out, but not raining. I took a right turn to try and beat a car that was coming and accelerated a little spiritedly. The car bogged down and the Trac Off light came on (maybe flashed at first) and would not accelerate fast as I was wanting to do. I did not accelerate to the point that I thought I should have lost traction and I did not feel the tire slip at all. The Trac light stayed on until I got to work (about a half mile tops) and I shut the car off then turned it back on and it did not stay on. Has anyone had this issue before? Is this something I should worry about? Am I just worrying too much since I just got the car?

You could have an ABS sensor out (or associated wiring) see this post

I think the fast blinking ABS light might have been associated to another issue I was having with vacuum lines. I think that I have fixed this issue.
