Every performance car (hell, even a minivan) will eventually put you in your place at some point, with or without traction control disabled. The solution is more driver training. Even if you're not going to make a serious hobby of it in the long term, it would help a ton if everyone who buys a sporty car would at least do 1-3 weekends of instructor-led HPDE stuff. It's not that expensive and doesn't require a lot of crazy car mods at that level, and it really does teach you a lot about traction and suspension management via your inputs.
