Now i doubt we will see a traction control system that well sorted on a car that most people can afford for a while. But saying that having it makes you worse for it is wrong, it only can work with the traction available and if you exceed it the vdc will help regain control, but it still requires you to not be stupid.

from my understanding, most race teams turn it off. Cant remember what mag it was in but im sure someone has it. The compaired a supercharged 350Z vs. a TT 370z. The company with the 370z had great results but not the best due to the VDC system, even with turning it off it still stays on by 25% or so. They tried everything to disable it, finally they just pulled the harness out and was able to run the car 100% and got better results.
I did the same thing at the track and i got alot better results as well, i had full control of my car and never had to worrie about pushing the car to hard and the VDC screwing everything up.
