cough....cough... BS!.......cough....cough. I do trackdays with it off. What has caught me offguard is having the car apply a rear brake when the car is sliding a little in mid-turn.

There's a big difference between someone who does track days and someone with their first 300+hp rwd manual sports car.

Welllll, LOL I was thinking on what tick64 said, and not taken in on what the OP's skill level is. Sorry.

This has happened to me and I was annoyed. I had to correct the other way quick because I had already counter steered some to get that perfect little slide. I don't care for VDC at all. This car is down on power compared to what I am use to. I am use to a turbo car with much more balls and is a handful to drive.
