I did that once with the 4.8, it's far too unpredictable because all of a sudden it hooks up and the torque steer is intense b/c it transfers all the power forward even with the DSC off to compensate for oversteer, lesson learned don't do that unless you are really paying attention. That's the one good thing about ESP in the Benz's, if you get past 15 degrees in a non-AMG and around 25 in an AMG or a little more in a PP AMG it re-engages because you can't really recover once you get past a certain point, the DSC just stays off (good for a track but not everyday play)
