Yeah, I guess my question wasn't about stability but more about the inability to scrub speed through the engine vs using the brakes, just enough to keep from oversteering or reaching the max capabilities of the tires. With this function, if you enter a turn where you were on the gas, full time, and then let off, just to scrub a little speed off, as you enter the turn, and then gradually get back on the gas through the turn (very common for tracks that use banked Nascar turns), this 'surge' or lack of deceleration will cause understeer/oversteer since you/I would be entering the turn at the edge of grip. I know seems confusing, but is normal on most turns, and with this feeling that get driving around town, I wouldn't feel good going into these types of turns with this scenario and the SRM on.
