If it follows TPS, it should be a linear function, and feel similar to the "smooth throttle" map. In theory the "driving force" value should enable you to tune it so it can be more responsive and peak faster, although it won't be linear anymore.

Oh well, guess it's all up to the individual driver.
^ That is, of course, definitely true.

It's not really about the throttle following the pedal in a linear fashion.. I mean yes that's good and what you want, but really it's the reduction in "processing time". There isn't that split second delay while the ECU calculates throttle position based upon user input, load and RPM. It just goes where it's supposed to be.

Also, it means VDC can't close the throttle. All it can do is apply brakes to prevent spins. I actually did a run by accident at my last AutoX with VDC still on and it was faster than the run before it...
