Default competitive driving mode question

A couple of my friends and I were discussing the competitive driving mode option, The question is once you put the car in competitive driving, when you press the "reset" button does the car stay in Competitive driving mode or default back to "Traction control" mode?

It will return to normal after the car is turned off and then restarted. You can also turn it on and off any time while driving by pushing the button. I usually just leave it on.

It stays, just clears the display so you can view other functions.

Pushing the button for the second time clears the competitive driving program and returns the setting to AH/TC on.

^^^For anyone wondering hes talking about the AH/TC button. Not the reset button. Pressing the reset button twice does nothing for the AH/TC button
