With 135i DTC enable, all you have to do is hold the line and let the DTC to do the work in most cases. If you try to counter steer your grip returns very quickly and you always end up on the other side of the road.

It is good that the 1M MDM mode behalves differently and allows more lateral movements till it kicks in.
Totally agree with this, I've done that in the wet and nearly end up on the wrong side of the road because the natural instinct is to counter steer. You have to adjust your driving style.

In my opinion stability control has to be completely off on the track. I don't often turn it off on the street but am nearly always in DTC mode.
