Vette(s): new 2012 Grand Sport LT3 convertable with auto matic, special exaust, Chrome mags,full spoiler, flags on seat and Crystal Red in color.
Hi, I want to to what my 12 GS will do in a 1/4 mile. If I keep it floored thru the 1/4 , will it shift itself at top RPM (6300 rpms, i think) . Or what does it do if you pull the sfifter to S ? and is traction controll best to use? Norwalk /Summit raceway is STICKY off the line. Your shoes will stick to it!! thanks, Don

Vette(s): Ron Fellows edition, Daytona 2007 Pace Car markings; Artic White, convertible.
If you drop down to "S" (Sport mode) the shift will occur about 300 rpm higher, or at about 6600, just before the red-line. I tried this and confirmed it on my 2007. As to the mode setting, I have not really understood these, so I always leave it in regular or non-slip. If somebody in here knows the difference between the different modes and their use, they could enlighten us both.
