For reference, here's an example of me spinning on track in PTM Race due to trying to apply throttle earlier when exiting this corner than on previous laps then lifting after oversteer starts and getting on the brakes. I probably could have caught the slide without overcorrecting if I had maintained about the same amount of throttle during the oversteer or decreased it just slightly instead of lifting:

And here's someone spinning in PTM Race where you can see the traction control light never blinks because the oversteer happened while the driver was trail braking:

Here is an example of someone else spinning on track in PTM Sport 2:

It may be possible to spin with all 4 wheels on pavement in PTM Sport 1 too but probably less likely. This person spun in Sport 1 but it looks like it was caused by dropping a wheel partly into the grass on corner exit:

There's also an autocross calibration available to buy for the eDiff that the dealership can flash onto your car but I believe it kicks you out of B street class and into CAM-C in SCCA autocross.
