Most noticeably in a 2nd gear slalam section that required a quick stab at the brakes and aggressive left right left steering input. Pretty much the exact sort of behavior that BMW would try to save us from in normal road use. The result was a very big delay in power delivery.
I am not really interested in digging in to any programming, just want to go play at the auto x occasionally. Any more buttons to push or fuses to pull (just at the track) that will help a Little? Still plenty fun as is, just curious.

What mode did you have the transmission in? I've noticed that when the transmission is in Drive, it will sometimes disengage the clutch when slowing down, and there can be a delay in power delivery when trying to accelerate again. If you have the transmission in Sport (lever to the left) or Sport-Manual (lever to the left, pull left paddle), though, the clutch remains engaged and power delivery is much more responsive. At autocross, I always use Sport-Manual and have never noticed any DTC intervention (besides the e-LSD of course).
