you're driving harder and the car feels peppier? makes sense to me. Drive like a grandma and the car feels like a slug, lol
so if I drive faster, I go fast, right and if I drive slower, I go slow.

it's all psychological. Although, I have to say the car is meant to be driven hard. The soft driving is just no fun in this car. it's not very comfortable either.

Thoroughbred cars are meant to be driven hard but smooth.

Yes, I believe it does change setting slightly on driving habits.
absolutely correct! I was confused on this a while ago as well. Our ECU's are very sensitive!
