Is there a way to disable the paddel when one wants to?
When autocrossing hands are flying around steering wheel and have shifted to another gear when don't want to. Then am stuck in a higher gear when exiting a corner and setting for Another.
This was on a course the Miatas were a lot better for.
not that Ive ever came across - the only way to do that would be to put it into it in auto mode (D) and the problem is that in auto mode the car is going to try and shift on its own which will cause you all sorts of issues
a tuner may be able to set the car so that when its in D it will just stay in the same gear (Id choose 2nd or 3rd depending on your torque, rearend gearing, and grip).
Note: these will require the paddle shifter conversion that makes the left downshift and right upshift. You can either rewire for free (theres a thread somewhere on the forum) or you can get a prewired kit for roughly 150 bucks from zip corvette as well as a few other forum vendors.

My Corvette is a manual, but my Mustang is an Auto, and it functions that way and makes track events fun and easy.
The power to the paddles is the same one for the Cruise Control /SW fuse.
It appears that the fuse also powers the Steering wheel inflatable coil.
There is another fuse for the Air bag sensing diagnostic /AOS module, on another circuit, so I'm not sure of the affect it would have by pilling the Cruise Control fuse. It may disable the steering wheel air bag, by the look of the schematic.
