You don't need to do what that random person told you. All you need to do is hold the TRAC OFF button for THREE (3) seconds until both yellow lights illuminate on your dash. You can also do this from any other mode, and while driving at any speed. 3 seconds holding that button down, and the aids are off.

As far as it intervening, the stability light will still flash on your dash, but unlike when the car is in other modes, I've never actually had the car reel me in or do anything to stop whatever I was in the middle of. FWIW, in my two years of autocrossing (one year stock, and one year in STX with RE71Rs), I've never had it step in on me, and so have never needed to resort to The Pedal Dance. YMMV...
