Guys: I don't wait to start another debate on VDC, but if the OP is wearing out a set of rear pads that quickly, he is way too aggressive on the throttle. If he turns VDC off, this will be a guaranteed spin (hell, I have spun on track with VDC on!). Hopefully, he isn't being followed closely or doesn't hit anything until he learns the 'feel'.

OP: Feel free to turn the VDC off, but do it in a safe place. Maybe this is what you need to learn how hard you are pressing the gas and the power that your can can put down with very little throttle.

Good luck and stay safe!
