HUD layout
Anyone know if the HUD layout on the C6 can be changed? I'm not talking adding or subtracting options, I'm talking about I've seen different pics. (I'd post but the lastest has a copyright)
The "original" I saw had the mph to the right with the tach starting to the left and running up over the mph like cresting a mountian. The latest I just saw had the mph close to center with the tach kind of circling the mph. I'm now curious to just which one the car has or if you can choose either?

Okay. So as not to break copyright and all I'm going to post links to the site that I saw the pics on, plus one that I had.
This is the "mountain" style I've seen:

This is the new "circle" style I've NEVER seen before:

I don't see any "info" difference between it and the pic I POSTED though. The link posted doesn't have the G info on it, but the pic I posted does. I would have though the modes would be more than just a style change.

The circle is the "Street"mode. The arched style or C5 style is the "Track" mode. In my opinion this was a waste of technology because you get the same information in both modes. The only difference is the style of tach. It would have been much better if the "Track" mode had more information for racing.

There are 2 Track modes giving you the info you want during spirited driving. One Track mode has the hockey stick tach and the other has the half circle tach. Both, I believe, have the g-meter.

Does anybody know what it means in the Offical Corvette workbook on page 11 for the navigation and HUD it says. - "Turn-by-turn arrows displayed on Head-Up Display"?

Next to that statment it shows a display with left & right turn arrows and MPH on top. Second line has direction of turn arrow and upcoming street name. Bottom line has distance to turn and a bar graph.
