Q RE: Competitive driving mode
When you put the car in competitive driving mode, does it stay in that mode after a restart, or does it revert back to active handling?
Sorry if it's a dumb question.

It defaults back to AH/TC upon restarting the car.
I believe there is some sort of box you can buy to prevent that, but forgetting that the AH/TC is off could be a deadly mistake.

Its off for that ignition cycle and then back on.
I think I've heard of members who have reprogrammed the default to off
IMHO safety features should be on unless you take the conscious decision to turn them off.
