Reaction Time
• The reaction timer measures the time from a visual cue in the cluster to when the vehicle's speed is measured to be greater than zero.
⅛ Mile (200 meter)
• Displays the time it takes for the vehicle to go an ⅛Mile
(200 meters).
¼ mile (400 meter)
• Displays the time it takes for the vehicle to go an ¼ mile (400 meters).
60 ft time
• Displays the time it takes for the vehicle to go 60 ft. Brake Distance
• Displays the distance it takes the vehicle to make a full stop.
Contains current and last data for distance and start – from speed.
NOTE: The distance measurement will be aborted if the brake pedal is
released before the vehicle comes to a complete stop.
Brake Speed
• Displays the speed the vehicle is traveling when the brake pedal is depressed.
NOTE: Brake Distance and Speed timers will only display "ready" when
vehicle is traveling at greater than 30 MPH (48 km/h).
NOTE:
• Brake Distance and Speed timers will only display "ready" when vehicle is traveling at greater than 30 MPH (48 km/h).
• To clear the timer values, use the steering wheel controls while on the specific timer page in the instrument cluster.

G-Force
When selected, this screen displays all four G-Force values (two lateral
and two longitudinal) as well as steering angle.When G-Force is selected, the following features will be available:
Lateral G-Force Left and Right
• The lateral g-force measures the (sideways) left and right force of the
vehicle.
Longitudinal G-Force Acceleration and Braking
• The longitudinal g-force measures the acceleration and braking force of the vehicle.
Peak G-Forces Acceleration and Braking, Left and Right
• This shows the maximum g-forces that have been achieved since the last reset from the instrument cluster display. Peak values are
maintained through ignition cycles by the instrument cluster display
until they are cleared by the driver.
NOTE: To clear peak values, use the steering wheel controls while on the
instrument cluster g-force page.
Vehicle Speed
• Vehicle Speed measures the current speed of the vehicle in either mph or km/h, starting at zero with no maximum value.
Steering Wheel Angle
•
Steering Wheel Angle utilizes the steering angle sensor to measure the
degree of the steering wheel relative to zero. The zero degree measure-
ment indicates a steering wheel straight ahead position. When the
steering angle value is negative, this indicates a turn to the left, and
when the steering angle value is positive, a turn to the right.

LAUNCH CONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
This vehicle is equipped with a Launch Control system that is designed
to allow the driver to achieve maximum vehicle acceleration in a
straight line. Launch Control is a form of traction control that manages
tire slip while launching the vehicle. This feature is intended for use
during race events on a closed course where consistent quarter mile
and zero to sixty times are desired. The system is not intended to
compensate for lack of driver experience or familiarity with the race
track. Use of this feature in low traction (cold, wet, gravel, etc.)
conditions may results in excess wheel slip outside this systems control
resulting in an aborted launch.
Preconditions:
• Launch Control should not be used on public roads. Always checktrack conditions and the surrounding area.
• Launch Control is not available within the first 500 miles (805 km) of engine break-in.
• Launch Control should only be used when the engine and transmis- sion are at operating temperature.
•
Launch Control is intended to be used on dry, paved road surfaces only.
CAUTION!
Use on slippery or loose surfaces may cause damage to vehicle
components and is not recommended. Launch Control is only available when the following procedure is
followed:
NOTE:
Pushing the SRT button on the Select-Track switch or pressing
the “Apps” button on the touchscreen are the two options to access
launch control features. Please refer to “SRT Drive Modes” in “Multi-
media” for further information.
1. Press the “Race Options” button on the touchscreen or push the LAUNCH button on the Select-Track switch.
2. Press the “Launch RPM Set-Up” button on the touchscreen. This screen will allow you to adjust your launch RPM’s for optimum
launch/traction.
3. Press the “Activate Launch Control” button on the touchscreen, follow instructions in the instrument cluster display.
• Make sure the vehicle is not moving.
• Put vehicle in first gear.
• Steering wheel must be pointing straight.
• Vehicle must be on level ground.
• Apply Brake Pressure.
• While holding the brake, rapidly apply the accelerator pedal to wide open throttle. The engine speed will hold at the RPM that
was set in the “Launch RPM Set-up” screen.
