Default Z51 Question

I'm new to sports cars, drove a Jeep for the last 6 years....anyway, got a floor model c6 with the z51, people I talked to said it was great to have, so I picked up on the deal. Anyway I was just wondering what the diff between competitive mode and regular mode. What offers what? Thanks.

Regular mode: Traction Control and Active Handling both on.
Competive mode: Traction Control off; Active Handling on but doesn't kick in as early as in Regular mode.

And that is not a Z51 issue as all C6s have that choice.

It is spelled out very clear in the owner's manual.
