I just want to add the VSC and ABS system has absolutely no idea what to do ON TRACK if you leave it in Sport mode and have actual sticky tires mounted....very annoying having ABS going off (or more precisely trying to go off while not really doing anything but pumping the pedals for effect only because the tires have at no point come close to loosing grip...) and engine cutting out a little screwing up corner exit speeds. With everything off the car brakes better and handles better. Does the same thing on the street to a much much lesser extent. But there is a difference you can feel between everything off and the systems on if you are in tune with the chassis and it has nothing to do with being even remotely close to driving recklessly on the road. It has everything to do with how the car is communicating with you... I want as free, and pure a communication from the car as possible verses artificial barrier's/filters which take some of it's soul/character away. It is a tangible difference you can feel after taking you first turn from a stop...and is the difference between being one with the car and just driving the car.
