I have always wanted to ask.

With the Euro's Drive By Wire Throttle instead of the normal cable throttle, I did realise that everytime I push the car(test car) and release the accelerator, the revs still go up before dropping, is this because of the drive by wire? The same thing on the NSX too yeah? Doesn't this lag make the car less responsive?

Yes, I experienced the same thing as you. I'm not sure if it affects the responsiveness or not, but logically thinking, wouldn't it just make your rev higher and higher if you change the gear fast enough (which is good if you want to accelerate faster)?

I have found the drive by wire on the XRT is a little less responsive than the normal type aswel.

I think the technology just needs to be refined a bit more as its relatively new.
