Default Driving in S mode?

I am new to Audis and have never used a car with "S" mode.

Are there any issues with driving in "S" mode too much? Is the only issue decreased fuel economy or are there other issues?

Thanks!

Speeding is a side effect for me.

On a similar note, I was watching on YouTube the Top Gear comparo of Ferrari 360 and some Porsche and they showed a button in the Ferrari on which was written "RACE". The comment was something like "You push this button and the computer puts the car into a psychotic mode"

Neglect of "D" mode, but you won't care...because you're in "S" mode.
