Thank you sir. You did understand my point. It is possible to drive a Z safely without the VDC on.

The ABS modulator used on this car uses a fairly high frequency so you don't get much in the way of feedback through the pedal when it is engaged. If anything you just feel the pedal go a little hard.

ABS shuts down at about 5 miles per hour but only in low traction conditions such as ice/snow or gravel. That is because in those conditions you actually stop faster with a full lock up.

Yes but even so this has nothing to do with VDC.

VDC on or off would of probably resulted in the same result.
