But if this is your only purpose with the car, your life is probably miserable. This is not a car to drive in rush hour traffic, scale speed bumps, etc etc. I find myself doing these things though, but I never find my TC on. Even being stuck in the snow, you're better off with TC OFF, than ON. I just don't know of any scenario (other than driving home in the rain on the freeway in sub 40 degree temps on Rivals) that I would EVER want the stability control to be turned ON. It's 7 seconds of holding a button, I assumed everyone did this when driving this car....? Otherwise, I might as well have bought a Camry or Accord.
FYI pedal dance is essentially useless in my opinion.. Other than lifting a tire at high speed on an actual road courses curbing, you will never trigger anything on the car that will activate any kind of aids beyond turning them off by simply holding down the two buttons. Even in autocross I've found the pedal dance essentially useless, but driving around on the street as electronics violently grab the brakes mid corner when the throttle is applied seems even more pointless to me.
