But my experience is that for track layouts that are both tight (lots of curves, very few straights) and very technical (off-camber or up-hill or combos or all of the above in multiple corners), DSC will do much more harm than good if you're pushing the car at all. In some cases, the car really does not know better.
I agree. From what I have noticed with DSC on my times have been considerably slower than if it is off. Nevertheless, I have it on on my first run and then off the rest of the day. Sort of a protective measure against my lack of driving experience. Oversteer is very easy with this car, especially exiting tight turns.
