Depending on how hard you drive you can really overheat the VLSD, even on the street. I did it last year at ZDayZ, and there have been other discussions from 2009/2010 about it.

But I do agree the Sport Package is a great value. For MOST people the VLSD will be sufficient for fun, but any sustained, really spirited driving or tracking will require a better diff. My guess is only 5% of the Sport Package owners ever push the VLSD beyond its limits on a somewhat regular basis.
