Sport is perfect for street driving-- just enough leeway to let you enjoy yourself. If you want to go sideways in the rain / snow / whatever you just have to turn it off (as everyone's said, hold down the off button until you get the two amber lights).
@Stang70Fastback I liked your parking lot video :3


Pretty much spot on. I'd like to add that the tcs "off" setting will still kick in at extremely sharp yaw rates like getting 70-80% sideways around a 90* corner. It's pretty frustrating because I've been in the zone, ready to accept the slide, then all of a sudden NOPE CAN'T DO THAT, SORRY kicks in and screws you all up and makes you look like you can't drive.
