I mean I can certainly tell the throttle isn't completely under my control but when I feel or hear ABS going off when it shouldn't be I know I wasn't smooth in whatever I just did.
Then again, I'm not an advanced driver by any means.
I spent a couple years on track, in a very different car, should hopefully be out for track day #1 on the 1st. If you're a novice, and the nannies are kicking in, you're almost certainly doing something wrong. Even in 'normal' mode, the car seems to allow a degree of slip and spin, much more so than my 5th gen did.

I'll certainly see for myself on track, but from 'spirited street driving' it seems like the amount of slip and slide in Track/Normal Traction, should allow more than enough flexibility for a novice before they get into trouble.

If you're an experienced driver, sure, all bets are off.
