Simply put....
TC on keeps you from spinning the wheels very much and will keep you from getting sideways.
TC off will let you do what ever...
Competitive Mode will let you wheel spin but still keep you from getting sideways. Great for drag racing.

I daily drive using AH. I have only seen it kick in 2, maybe 3 times. It allows me to side slip my normal "under control" amount (I don't "drift") without interfering but when I take emergency corrective action (cutting the throttle and steering into the skid) it helps me recover faster than without it. Slows you down a lot in the process.
My emergency reflexes have already been implimented before it "assists". AH is a very smart system. It seems to be proportional in strength and length of application to what is required. It has not kicked in when I didn't want it to.

Anyway, to answer your question, I'm not sure about drifting, but during oversteer with the nose of the car still planted, yes.

Just to clarify things, I wasn't trying to say that I wanted to or have been doing drifting, just maybe an occassional turning a corner and letting the rear end slide while accelerating to much and making the turn in a "in control" manner while sliding, in competition mode. Thanks for the responses.
