6-8 seconds is probably overstating the invasiveness of vdc. Given that your lap times are solid, but not earth-shattering, have you considered that maybe the people that talk about driving smooth have something valid to say?

I picked up about 3-4 seconds on a tight autoX course by shutting off vdc when I started. The gap has gotten closer as I've gotten better, down to maybe half a second, unless there are a lot of places that require rotating.
It can be annoying on a lot of courses, and I will continue to shut it off on the track, but it's not nearly as problematic as it is made out to be.
plenty of people lay hot lap times with vdc on.
