You still have to push and hold the button down to deactivate.
I tend to run the car exclusively in Sport/Competitive Mode. When I get back to the states, I’ll try to run it a bit aggressively in just sport mode. I don’t flog my car that often but, it seems that there may be some misinterpretation by a few here that right foot modulation is all that’s required. I sometimes wonder if I do not convey my questioning and explanations specifically enough. I could modulate my right foot all I want but at that rate, I am rolling as slow if not slower than most stock SS’s until I can lay on the throttle. I don’t care too much about my straight line speed but, when exiting a turn and utilizing NLS, that fishtail/wiggle is unsettling at the wrong time. If the solution is just “learn to drive”, then I’ll just seek out my own solution to this issue.
