If turning off the VDC means you are going yo crash in a wall then I can suggest some low horsepower FWD or AWD cars you can opt for. With the summer heat, good tires and a real drivers skill, there's no reason you shouldn't be able to drive with the VDC off.

If you can't keep a sports car stable without the saftey equipment activated, then you basically don't belong in one with or without the safety equipment on.

Too many people want high horsepower sports cars, but no one wants to put in the driving time and learn the techniques of driving them before aquiring them.

On that note, whenever I am merging in my G, I throw it in manual, I get instantaneous throttle response on the paddleshift. Should be the same for the Z.
