The F20 is amazingly stable going into corners hard on the brakes. Even with DSC Off, all the ABS systems are still running, and it is difficult to get the car out of balance. With trailing throttle in low gears and moderate braking during corner entry, the car will oversteer a bit, but I think you have to be very aggressive to upset the car in neutral.
