Oh absolutely. At Watkins Glen it really is only the turn dubbed "The Off Camber" (figures, right?) that upsets the DSC but it's a slow enough turn that it really doesn't impact exit speeds all that much. All of the other turns, if taken correctly, won't trip DSC at all. The up-hill climbs are in a straight line and ever turn has some decent camber to it. Now, on Lightning it's a completely different story! Turn 5 is uphill and off-camber and it starts with some non-straight-wheel braking and has you powering on well before the apex. Needless to say... DSC sh-ts itself anytime I forget to take it off.
