Sport+ mode by default

Hi, I was wondering if someone knew how to set the sport+ mode by default on a GT Premium (instead of having to switch from normal to sport+ each time I use the car).
Thanks!

Just hold down the traction-control button for 7-8 seconds with the foot on the brake after every time you start the car.
All the nannies off.

Best way to drive these cars

I don't think you can without re-flashing the ABS ECU.

I imagine for legal reasons all of the safety features are required to be defaulted on. The user must consciously choose to turn them off instead of remember to turn them on.

It really only takes a few seconds to select Sport+ mode. I find normal mode is fine unless I want to do some spirited driving. With 718 hp under the hood of my 2016 GT Premium Sport+ mode is a whole lot of fun.

Which is why so many of them wind up in ditches.
