I'm hit or miss with it but I've had my best luck applying full throttle steadily but swiftly. It seems like if you floor it, it cuts out right away. Sometimes I hit the sweetspot and the rears feel like soap, the tail kicks around and then comes back smoothly. Still other times, it hooks up and maybe chirps but doesn't go out.

I won't do it in the wet again until I practice in a lot. I had an interesting experience with counter steer needed leaving a circle after a light rain when I wasn't expecting the car to allow so much rotation.
Yeah, I'm probably a sissy about it. I rarely intend on trying to get the tail out. Tires only have 5,000 miles on them too. I guess I should say that for how I drive Sport+ isn't a problem.
