Tow N Go consists of the following positions:
 TRACK – Optimizes settings for transmission, engine,
driveline, and suspension in order to maximize vehicle
performance. Also the electric power steering offers
more feedback of the tire gripping the road. This
feature will reset to AUTO upon an ignition cycle. To
turn off Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
 SPORT – Dry weather, on-road calibration. Perfor-
mance based tuning that provides a rear-wheel drive
feel but with improved handling and acceleration over
a two-wheel drive vehicle. This feature will reset to
AUTO upon an ignition cycle.
 TOW – TOW drive mode also optimizes the transmis-
sion shifting for towing, as well as maximizing straight
line traction by optimizing driveline settings on AWD
system. Use this mode for towing/hauling. Vehicle
suspension will go to SPORT mode. Trailer Sway
Control (TSC) is always enabled in all drive modes
provided that the ESC OFF indicator light is not illumi-
nated. TSC is disabled when the ESC OFF lamp is illu-
minated. This feature will reset to AUTO upon an
ignition cycle.
 SNOW – Tuning set for additional stability in inclement
weather. Use on and off-road on loose traction
surfaces such as snow. This feature will reset to AUTO
upon an ignition cycle.

NOTE:
The standard Black Brembo Brake Pads are not recom-
mended for track use. Only the Red Brembo Performance
calipers are appropriate for track use.
 If your vehicle is equipped with Drive Modes, they will
alter the vehicle's performance in various driving situa-
tions. It is recommended that your vehicle operates in
SPORT or TRACK modes during the track event.
STARTING AND OPERATING
 Prior to each track event, verify all fluids are at the
correct levels.
page 158.
Ú
 Prior to each track event, verify the front and rear brake
pads have more than half pad thickness remaining. If
the brake pads require changing, complete a brake
burnish procedure prior to track outing at full pace.
NOTE:
Use of DOT 4 brake fluid is suggested for extended track
usage due to increased thermal capacity.
 At the conclusion of each track event, it is recom-
mended that a brake bleed procedure is performed to
maintain the pedal feel and stopping capability of your
Brembo High Performance brake system.
 It is recommended that each track outing should end
with a minimum of one cooldown lap using minimal
braking.
 It is recommended that the suspension system, brake
system, prop shaft, and half shaft boots be checked for
wear or damage after every track event.
 Track usage results in increased operating tempera-
tures of the engine, transmission, driveline and brake
system. This may affect Noise Vibration Harshness
(NVH) countermeasures designed into your vehicle.
New components may need to be installed to return
the system to the original NVH performance.
 Tire pressure:
 Recommended tire pressure of 33 psi (230 kPa)
when tires are cold, or below 42 psi (290 kPa)
when hot.
