none....

if you hold in your TC button for about 5-10 seconds, it will disable the stability control...

and it's probably the differential anti-score protection that kicked in and almost killed ya, not the stability control...

you have the wheels turned and you jumped on it??? that's the anti-score... and no, that can not be disabled by a handheld either...

Stability Control has saved my butt more than once. But yeah, just hold the T/C button down.

Tires musta hit some dirt or something on the turn.. If the weight is shifted too much to one side and that happens, it kills the engine and I think locks the brakes on one side for about a half a second to help get grip back.. It saved me once, but other than that, just gets in the way of trying to powerslide my FWD, lol.
