First thing that comes to mind is after market fog lights
or maybe an after market amp.
second thought is something James Bond-ish
switch to disable tail lights, oil slick maker, rocket launcher?

Is it possibly your traction-control switch for winter? I had an early 90's GranPrix that had that - which forced the tranny to start out in 2nd gear when slick.

Click it on, and see how it accelerates! Let us know.
