Default DIC Question
Is there a way to have your personal message stay on?

I programmed in my message which is . .'Cleared for takeoff'

and I would like to have that stay on while driving. Is there a way to do that? Right now it just flashes on for a few seconds while starting the car. I know it's not a big deal, but just a fun thing.

Thanks

OK I'll bite.... If you're already driving why would you want to see it all the time? A fighter jet in a dog fight isnt seeing " Cleared for takeoff " in on his HUD.

I don't want it on the HUD. I want it on the DIC because when I have a passenger in the car, and they look over, it makes them chuckle, and it makes me laugh a little. Plus, I could change the message every so often to see if people notice. I get bored having the other options displayed such as gas mileage, odometer etc, and usually just have it being blank.

I know you didnt mean on the HUD. I just said HUD because F-18's dont have DIC's( (I think).
And if you get bored driving a C6 and feel the need to read,you might try a supercharger to keep you interested.

OK, you have my permission to use the avitar.

Speed Racer was my favorite cartoon when I was a little kid.
