benefits and is it dangerous. I know not in the snow or rain, but when the road is dry, do you turn ESP on or off?

I always drive with the ESP off, in the dry and rain though not snow. I perfer to control the car on my own without computer assistance. The benefit is being able to push you car harder than the ESP will allow. The danger is that if you are not skilled in understeer or oversteer you could quickly find yourself in trouble.
