Default Track software update

I was curious if you guys plan to put out a software update displaying digital readouts in Track mode for 2014-17 corvettes. Another member djnice posted showing the 2018 Track mode display and id love to have that on my 15.
Also if this software update did become available would it effect the cars tune. I have an Edelbrock E Force supercharger and tune so just curious. Thanks,
Eric

Nice new display feature but Tadge has already said they will not update the older models displays for ANY new feature. You get the upgrades the next time you upgrade your vette. I don't like it either but that's the way it is.

No it was in refrenece to the missing pocket gauge for engine temp. Its the same question and they are not going to update simply because they do not WANT to. Asking again will not help. Asked and answered.

just said they most likely wouldn't be doing "performance tune" software updates but they do other software updates. Ill have to take a look at the thread youre referencing.

Default Dic issues

I am waiting for an update to get my DIC from locking up. Different conditions, the latest was inop power no radio etc no matter what just vette flag screen. Dealer ssid they will look at software update-reset. It went away after starting and stopping engine a couple times. Can be annoying. Had directions downloaded but system would not turn on and no download.
