The Transmission/Performance button on the center consule?
Can anyone tell me EXACTLY what this does? I use it rarely, seems to shift a little faster when dogged but other then that cant tell too much of a difference.

I believe all it does it adjust the shift firmness. I had it in my Formula but I swapped to a six speed.

Only on birds. I think it just holds the gears out longer. Camaros are always in "performance" mode.

Once again this is incorrect. Camaros are always in normal mode, unless you add this button.

It changes the shift points and firmness.
