Note: Do not use Sport mode on public
roadways.
Some models may also come equipped
with a sport mode which allows the driver
to reduce normal electronic stability
control system intervention and provide a
more spirited driving experience. To enter
sport mode, toggle the stability control
button twice rapidly. The message appears
in the information display that the system
is now in sport mode.
For vehicles equipped with the selectable
drive mode feature, electronic stability
control sport mode is not available. You
can utilize the performance oriented
electronic stability control mode by
selecting track drive mode. In this mode,
electronic stability control intervention is
reduced and tuned specifically for track
use only and is not for use on public roads.
In all of the selectable drive modes, you
can disable traction control and electronic
stability control with the electronic stability
control switch.
Line Lock
(If Equipped)
Line Lock is a feature intended for use at
tracks only and should not be used on
public roadways. Use of this feature will
result in significantly increased rear tire
wear. It is intended to condition the rear
tires to maximize traction prior to track use.
Line Lock maintains brake force at the
front wheels, allowing the rear wheels to
spin with minimal vehicle movement.
This feature is located in the Track Apps
menu. Make selections through the 5-way
information display control and OK button
located on the steering wheel.
