There is a "speed limit tolerance" setting that does help with the abrupt changes ... I ended up turning this feature off for now though. I just didn't like the surprises.
Hey, I'm guessing you "had to get used to the tech features" because they came with some other features that you really wanted. I wonder how a really stripped-down version would sell if they only kept the very best parts that you really wanted ... like the best drive train, engine and wheels...
Man, go slower not faster, or not at all ... I'm wondering how long before their feet got wet and they had to wade out of it :) Need a new GOAT mode for this.
