Hold the TC button for 5 seconds, and the display will show Competitive Mode. This mode is best, as it will not interfere with tire slipage, unless the car's angle becomes so bad that you likely have lost control of the car and you likely need it to attempt to save your car from smaking the retaining wall..... :oo:
