No...the only pertinent point is that applying the brakes won't turn PSM back on as you initially told the OP. We have learned that invoking the ABS turns the PSM on, and we believe that getting horribly sideways might turn the PSM back on, but applying the brakes will not.

The fact that I assumed you were skilled enough to go to the track and avoid locking up your brakes was indeed a mistake on my part.

You are correct - I'm sure you can get the PSM to turn back on if that is your intent. If you are driving the track as you should however, the PSM shouldn't have to turn itself back on.

The advice for people going to the track is to leave the PSM on. If you find the car intervening - then smooth out your style.

The advice for people who go to the track and turn off their PSM but who find that the car keeps turning it back on is to get another hobby.
