sion in order to maximize vehicle perfor-
mance. Also the electric power steering
offers more feedback of the tire gripping the

SPORT – Dry weather, on-road calibration.
Performance based tuning that provides a

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
transmission shifting for towing, as well as
maximizing straight line traction by opti-
mizing driveline settings on AWD system.

GUIDELINES FOR TRACK USE
If your vehicle is equipped with Drive Modes,
they will alter the vehicle’s performance in
various driving situations. It is recommended
that your vehicle operates in SPORT or
TRACK modes during the track event.
Prior to each track event, verify all fluids are
at the correct levels.
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
recommended 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.
