I have to say, that while I agree that turning off traction and stability on public roads is not a good idea if you are not experienced with a RWD car, or do not understand how far you can push the car, traction and stability control will also not save you from the laws of physics. Just drive smartly. There is a time and place to drive the car hard. A large empty parking lot is a good place to start.

As for the comments about insurance and recalls, people need to calm down. While I am sure the OP may see a rise in his insurance rates, it will have little affect on anyone else unless this becomes the trend with this car.

I also found neutral's confession and his accountability refreshing. So many people these days dont want to accept the consequences of their actions and like to blame somebody or something else. Everyone makes mistakes, glad nobody was hurt.
