As everyone knows there are times when a little bit of wheelspin or a little bit of a slide isn't a bad thing, but VDC seems to think otherwise.

What would have been nice is a standard setting and then a sport setting like what most cars are using these days.
Honestly if the only thing it did better was not restrict the throttle for so long and so reduced, I'd be okay with it, even on the track. It's just ridiculous that it lasts for literally seconds longer than it should.

That's the problem. It's basically like what you'd expect to see in a non-performance car. A sport tuned setting would be very nice to have. Something that lets you get wheel spin and lets you yaw the car out some, only intervening when you go too far... and even then it should do it smoothly.
