Question How do I turn off traction control on a 2005 mustang?

I have a 2005 automatic v6 mustang and there is no button to turn traction control on/off on the dashboard. Do I have traction control? And if I do can I turn it off?

And while I'm at it, would turning overdrive off help a burnout?

Think of "overdrive" as your 4th gear in the auto transmission. I have no idea why they give you 1,2,3 and a button for OD instead of placing a 4 on the gear selector.

In the tradition of a old Austin Healey with its electric over drive perhaps?
