Hi all,
I didn't put this in the software forum because I assumed more like minded people might be lurking in this section.
I have a '22 performance and I'm pretty happy with it. I've done a couple of short track type days in it but they're pretty few and far between. Something I thoroughly enjoyed in my previous car was the ability to tap the traction button to enable a reduced traction intervention mode and allow myself some small, cheeky slides on my commute to or from work (or wherever). Not big, smokey drifts but just fun little slides. My commute route is pretty low/no traffic for some parts.
I'm struggling with the inability to do this in the 3. Stopping, engaging park, menus, accept track mode disclaimer, cooling into overdrive. Do my little fun and then turn it off again 30s later. It's a bit of a mood killer.
Has anyone found any shortcuts around this? Do the S3XY buttons with their track mode toggle help this? Any other things I can do to make the car a bit more spirited without needing to go full track mode? I realise it's software controlled AWD and not i6t RWD like I used to have but it's not like it can't slide a bit when properly set up in track mode.
