The one on the right which you have to press and hold for a couple of seconds will allow a lot more slip if you *really* provoke it but it will *still* intervene some what.

Somewhat disappointing.
That's not true.

You need to hold the button on the LEFT down for 3 seconds. That will allow you to hoon the car to heart's desire without intervening. I can do donuts, snownuts, autocross, ice racing, and all manner of smoky shenanigans all day long in that mode without the car intervening. See my first post in this thread. If you don't have JUST the two yellow lights on on your dash (WITHOUT the green light) then you haven't found the correct mode yet.
