To the OP: Your in Cary, NC - get out to NCCAR and work on full nannies off and saving the car with counter steer. Build up to counter steer and keeping the throttle on. - Come up to Summit Point for a FATT and spend time in the Crown Vics where you can practice big time under/over steer situations.
These cars have fantastic PTM. Yes it will make you "look" like a better driver. One day you have to turn it off to get faster. SMOOTH even with PTM Modes will pay off.

I couldn't agree more with what BC (Juice 3) has to say here and we are fellow instructors at some tracks in the NE.
There is a great document out there that explains PTM in explicit detail that I give to all of my Camaro students- read it and understand it and with that knowledge and some decent instruction you will learn that the R&D that Al O and team put into these cars is truly amazing.
Good luck and be safe. Come on up to Summit Point for a FATT, SCCA or CHIN event and there is a good chance one of us could help you out.
