I'm not the most experienced autocrosser here, but I have won my class two years in a row. Never used the pedal dance. The 3 second hold until both lights appeared has always been sufficient for me, and I've yet to ever have it intervene, or kick back on, no matter how sideways or spiny I get.

People need to realize that they might still see the stability light flashing, but I've never felt it actually affect throttle or vehicle direction. I'm led to believe when that happens, it's the e-diff acting to prevent uncontrolled wheelspin from the Torsen diff, without actually trying to affect how the vehicle moves. People just see the blinking light and freak out about how the car is "still intervening" when it really isn't doing anything to hurt you.
