Race mode, slam brake, slam gas, release brake. Way easier than the old models.

Doesn't need to be in Race mode. Will do it in Sport+ too and maybe even Comfort mode, can't remember. Never driven in Sport mode so can't say.

This.

You can do it in other modes, but from my experience, race mode nets the best results.
