I've read that the Active Handling program in the newer C5s is much improved over the original system. Does anyone know if its possible to upgrade my '99 software to the newer specs?

It is more than software. The 99 isn't bad I run with it at the track and never feel it as I smoke just about every car there out of literally hundreds. I hardly ever feel it kick in. If I feel it once on an entire track day that's about it. At the Viper event in the spring my car ran 1:37 on the Pocono long course which equaled the fastest Viper there I could find in lap times. Car hit 163 MPH going to tunnel turn with my GF in the car. If the car is setup right and the wheels stay planted and drive right it will never be felt.

Thanks John. I've had it kick in a couple of times on the track - and I'm glad it did - but this was my 1st season on a track. You're right- its not too intrusive.
Was just curious if this had crossed anyone else's mind.
I'll look for you in the spring at the PDA events, as Limerock is long ago sold-out.
