Very well said! PTM can be used for an advantage depending on how the tires are feeling, track conditions, temp, etc.
I like Race as it maximizes the exit speed, without provoking oversteer, or excessive tire over slip. Having said that, depending on mid corner speed (and hence grip) the rear can still come around if one is too greedy with throttle (when the car already has excessive rotation and rear has little grip). And like you, I use Race in both square and staggered set ups. I think its overall calibration is excellent, but I do understand fully if folks wish for the additional yaw management with PTM Sport 1. Some folks posted uber laptimes with this setting, but the car needs to be driven "cleaner" not to provoke the Stabilitrack too much. So a good feel of what the car is doing balance wise is a big asset here. However, even for somebody less experienced, this setting will allow the car to be pushed pretty far. But, personally, I find it a bit too tight for my liking. Cheers!
