I have the old type ( not selectable) sprint booster on both of my SRT's and never leave home with out them. You can pull off as easily or violently as you wish with the sprint booster. The trick is in the fine motor skills in that right foot. I would think that most people can master it in a few moments but I have had a few drive my coupe and prove that wrong. You also need to consider the rapid motion of throttle brake throttle in agressive driving when other cars are in close proximity. I think it comes down to personel preference but I sure enjoy that instant throttle on my cars.
