I recently had some fun after something unknown caused the car to disable ABS and VDC... it was fun to lightly lock up the brakes on a country road and find the limit of that grip.
Find a shitty broken up parking lot. Grass growing through cracks is the best. Brake hard going across it. Enjoy ice mode.

BRAKE and VDC will give up and turn off (light up) if the brake fluid sensor reads low. It's towards the front of the reservoir and if you're a little low can be tripped by hard acceleration. Credit to ChrisSlicks for helping diagnose that on my car after one track day.
