Traction Controll Completely Off?

I've never pushed the car enough with VDC off to experience this. Does this mean that those 370Z Playboy drift videos aren't really possible without pulling fuses?

I've never had it activate on the track, but then again you usually aren't going stupid sideways. At first it will just blink at you to let you know you're being stupid but it wont do anything, increase the speed difference further and then it will cut by a small percentage to try and bring the wheel speed difference down to an acceptable range. Note that the range is pretty broad so unless you are trying to do donuts or mad drifts or driving on ice with your foot pinned to the throttle you will likely never see this.

I imagine that drifters disable the ABS which will should also disable traction control.

It's never been a problem for me. I drive hard but not stupid. I can slightly drift the back end around long radius corners on a auto-x course without issue but I'm not at a 45 degree angle laying down a smoke show.
