GR Yaris Every time I get a little unexpected twitch...

... and I panic a little as the car steps 1/2" out of line...

I must remind myself that this is what it was built for!

Well indirectly, yes. But, no, not really

Seriously, don't panic that's the worst. Stay calm, steer where you wanna go staying on the throttle, or brake with the front wheels as straight as possible. Either or, especially if you have a Circuit/Performance pack, it doesn't like coasting/off throttle, diffs aren't locking then and car becomes more unstable/unpredictable (then it was just before)...

Get to learn the car and practice practice practice - driver training. That's my joy with this car, there is a depth of talent/capability and it seems one can never practice enough...

Don't worry, I don't panic; it was just an excuse to put up a picture of a flying Yaris mid-rally as a reminder of what the car was designed for. Glad i switched on the television just in time.

And as I don't have the locking diffs I don't have to worry about stability differences and whether they are locked or not

Oh yes, definitely agree with that
