Competitive mode has nothing to do with that.

Burnouts are controlled by the traction control.
What cometitive mode does is let the the car get more of a lateral angle, befor apllying the brakes where needed.

OK, I will say more.
Push the button two times quickly and you are in competitive mode. Traction control plus launch control. Hold accellerator to the floor engine goes to 4200 RPMs. Release clutch (quickly)

Push it just once and the traction control is off (disabled). Set accellerator to 4200 RPMs. Release clutch (quickly)
I needed to add the part about patting the gas quite a bit to control excessive RPMs with traction control disabled, in this case it was quite necessary.......

I hope this clears things up.

So what does that do for the skidpad stuff? Anything?

Also, I assume this is on the manual, yes?

it sure seems like the ratio could be better... just sayin....
