If I wanted to just power slide slightly and let the back out just a tad, that is possible with mode 1?
Powerslide?

I don't think so; the system is quite intrusive and leaps into action at the slightest provocation.

What about full on drifting? What mode do the reviewers put the car in for drifting?
I assume they turn everything OFF, but not with the Pedal Dance. I can't recall whether any reviewer described exactly what they did. My limited experience sliding the car around (the grip levels are quite high) suggests that even the Sport Mode is intrusive, severely limiting any slip angles. Sport Mode works impressively in the snow and should keep most drivers out of serious trouble, assuming one does not do something truly stupid.

Those wild powerslides you see Chris Harris and other reviewers doing, must surely have everything turned OFF.

Have fun, but don't hurt anyone else, and don't get bent yourself.
