Limp Home Mode Questions

I have a 1996 SL600 that is currently stuck in limp home mode. The engine will not rev above 3000 RPM. It is in limp home mode for 2 reasons that I am aware of:

1)Transmission is not programmed for the correct gear ratio
2) ESP system is completely disconnected.

My question; Is it any way damaging to drive this way? I would like to take this car to a show 25 miles away. I would also like to clear the limp home mode even temporarily if I can just for the show.
