I would like to have your idea about your selection with the M button.

Yesterday, I had my first sport day in my M3 E92. Running in is finished and I proposed to my "old" Lotus" friends to go for a trip on the back roads.(Sc elise 250bhp and Exige S). Weather was 90% fine except 2 showers. I still need to improve my feeling about the car because I get less feed back from the chassis and the wheel than before in my very stiff and track modded elise. Anyway to make a long story short, I struggled on the short twisties and push them on the long bends.

Before that funny game, I had selected for the M button: power, edc normal (back roads are not that good in Belgium), servotronic sport and M dynamicMode for edc.

The problem was that after the showers and in the small roads in the forest, the Mdynamic mode allows quite a lot (too much) of transversal slide on the wet and I had sometimes to swith of the M button to do not be surprised. I also could drive less "aggressively" I agree.
Anyway, I changed now the selection to only M dyn Mode and servo sport and select all the rest trough the buttons on the central console. The idea being to be able to switch to full control without loosing the power setting and the damper setting.
What do you think?
