VDC does more than cut power to your rear tires. It also modulates the brakes on all four wheels to regain stability.

Last I heard, Audi was working on a system that didn't slow the car while trying to maintain control (most stability systems using braking to regain control). The new Audi system attempts to apply power to straighten the car instead. Not sure how this is coming along though.

Since i'm not a complete moron I know what will cause the rear end to kick out and hence I will be expecting it. Nothing wrong with a little tire spin when there is no traffic around. I'm just saying it's a horrible feeling to be expecting your car to act one way and then have VDC kick in and jolt the hell out of you and stop the forward motion of your car.
