Welcome from Atlanta

Performance Control is really just the traction control as it has so many systems it uses now to keep the car straight, and no tire slip.

I was going to say the three pedals and steering wheel. Passenger will work as well, depending on weather, road characteristics and enthusiasm on that day!
