I believe I've read somewhere that Track will completely disable AFM. CAGS remains another story? I'd expect someone will come up with a hack in relatively short order for both the skip-shift and cylinder de-activation if desired. In one of his interviews, Tadge notes that a torque converter automatic transmission played really well with AFM. Or something to that effect.

If it really is as transparent as they claim, I'm fine with the system in Eco mode or Wimp mode or whatever they want to call it. 26 average mpg doesn't like a bad deal as long as all the ponies are available IMMEDIATELY if in Sport or Track mode.
