Default G-Force display

Is there a way to display the maximum G force measured on the HUD? I have a 05 z51. Thanks.

As noted if you put the car in track mode you will see the G-meter displayed. This is displayed in real time. The manual lists a method of recalling the maximum reading sustained which is stored but unfortunately it is broken on the 2005 model year cars. The method as listed in the manual does not recall the max reading. 2006 and later cars were fixed from the manufacturer.

In addition, in the track mode, HOLD THE "Page" down and the max G reading will show up eventually. Turn off car and you will lose max reading.

If you have an iPhone or iPod, another way is a $13 (was $10) program named Dynolicious.
