The car is tail happy, and if you changes to stickier tires it will be MUCH less predictable on the street. Not soap boxing, just reality.
You're so true, being in VSC sport saved me and my car maybe twice, once in fall at the middle of a corner, a bump kicked the car sideway and the vsc did it's job of bringing the car back straight, the other in winter, same kind of conditions but somewhere else, I liked these nannies more than I though I would...
