I really like the throttle response in Sport + mode. I'm just lazy and don't want to switch it into Sport+ mode every time I start the car. Any ideas? I've read the manual several times and can't find a solution.

Thatā€˜s because there isnā€˜t a practical solution.

You can tune the throttle to have the same response in Normal that it has in Sport+. Any tuner worth his salt can help you with that.

When I started this thread I had a ā€˜22 GT 6MT, which I later traded for a ā€˜22 Mach 1 manual. Shortly thereafter I unfortunately had to trade that for a ā€˜23 A10 Mach 1. Don’t ask…

Anyway, the ā€˜23 A10 Mach 1 now has around 700 miles on the clock, virtually all the while in track mode against forum advice. It feels pretty strong although the A10 chooses to shift at only 7000 on WOT pulls. So a couple of days ago I decided to flip it over to Drag Strip mode and do a couple of WOT pulls. I’m here to report that even with TC and ESC both left on (or however they are in that drive mode) there is one hell of a difference in perceived power, acceleration and sheer brutality between track and drag modes. You’d have to try it yourself to see if you haven’t.

Although Drag mode no doubt reswizzles the A10, I still wish it would hit 7400-7500 between shifts like my ā€˜20 GT A10 does. Of course that car has 4000. miles so maybe break-in is a factor.
