Default TVD Option and Results

For those of you with the TVD, have you tried the Sports + mode with the Track option on TVD? Man, it shifts way harder like a sledge hammer but its a more sporty feel. The shift feels more instantaneous.

I tried driving around in Slalom & Track mode and watched the little light show on the dash shift power back and forth but at slower speeds can't really say I feel much difference?

Normal driving on the streets may not fully appreciate the TVD it much as driving on a real track or driving crazy on the streets.

Just curious to hear other feedback.

In sport + mode,

1. The throttle is less linear and more responsive.
2. If driven in auto, the upshifts will hold and approach redline.
3. The rev matched downshifts or blips are near instantaneous.
4. The steering is more responsive.
5. Add expert to the mix and you cam drift like a champ and smoke the rubber (if that's your thing).

Sport + track TVD setting sprays superglue on your tires to straighten out the corners and gives you excellent traction.

The more you play with the options the easier the car will be to setup based on the driving conditions.
