When you are doing
spirited driving on the street or track, are you seeing the TC/ESC light come on often? When it comes on, do you think it's kicking in due to driver error or not?
If you feel like you are going above the slip angle or wheel slip safety thresholds programmed in the software, and TC is kicking in, but you are confident you're still in full control and it's slowing you down, try again with the sports mode on (VSC), and eventually with TC off.
I would say an autocross is the perfect place to compare how the car handles with aids off... lots of tight turns and precise inputs required, can only go WOT for so long, etc.
Also if you have Forza or Gran Turismo, try playing with TC on/off. It takes some skill not to spin out with TC off with the supercars..
