I suggest you find a autocross event to learn the feel of your car. Sure you might hit a cone or spin it around but it's in a controlled place (not the streets). They should also have a novice instructor to ride with you and give you pointers. They are 95% safe, but something crazy "could" always happen. You can see in her video traction control never came on. My real goal was for her to feel the car at the limit, but with the rain that didn't happen. I can't say much I didn't fully turn traction control off on my run. Still a new car to me too.
