Mikey, I'll give you some thoughts you can relate to since I used your former car for a year then stepped into a car with a two-step recently. Just like the Sunbird I can put the pedal to the metal, no stab & steer. The chip is set for 2,600 rpm. I dont need to worry about it creeping forward on me either.

BTW, I like the rule change because if they didn't make it I would have stopped using the two-step mounted on the dash because I ain't coordinated enough to make my finger and foot go at the same time. Now there is one less motion I have to worry about while going down track

Now as far as the two-steps being activated down-track when everyone starts scrubbing the brakes, maybe they could mandate some sort of switch that automatically disarms the two-step after you launch?
I'm gonna see if I can install something like that anyway because then I can run the car in Pro ET without having to uninstall everything.
