It was similar to the sensation of TC kicking in when it's fully on.

I just want to know if I'm wasting my time doing this pedal dance and the 3-second hold off is what I need to do. Because it was kind of annoying to do it every time it was time for my session. Also, once in awhile my ABS light and a few other warning lights would come on.

This happened to me at DDA1 as well, but it was while doing the 3-second hold only (didn't know about the pedal dance at the time).

Either way, it would be awesome if either one could be a single push or default off without splicing wires.
If you spin out and get lights, you need to turn off the car COMPLETELY, and then turn it back on to reset. Otherwise the car will likely be in limp mode, and not have ABS, not have full braking, act funny, etc.

This is pretty typical for any car.
