TCS and ESC help keep the Gen V under control but they do not counter the laws of physics. An experienced driver, perhaps someone with a real talent for driving, could get more out of a car like the Viper in certain scenarios by disabling those things. TCS and ESC just allow less experienced drivers, a category a lot of us here probably fall into, to enjoy the Viper while reducing the risk of crashing or wrecking the car due to driver error. Not sure if there is anything left unsaid in this thread on your topic. Time to go buy yourself a Viper!
