Default VSA...does it really turn itself off?

Just like the title reads, with those with 06+ AP2's when you turn the VSA off, does it completely turn itself off? or is it like the 350z and g35 where you turn it off but it somehow turns itself back on if it senses your being an idiot?

It turns off. I've tested this messing around in the rain in an empty parking lot. With VSA on, its a lot less fun .

The Z's TCS stays off once you press the button and then returns once you restart the car.

I know this for a fact since I own an 06 enthusiast

Yep I was afraid of this when I got my 07. I am happy to say when it turns off its off. BTW the Nissan/Infiniti traction control has a little bit of interference when it senses that things are way out of control. Nothing major but it still managed to bother me when I was trying to have fun.
