Hello Corvette world, I need some help. I have a 2017 1LT Stingray. I have watch the video on how to get access to the displays to ether select one for all drive modes or as the lingo says Link to drive mode. The problem being I can't find it. I have selected on the steering controls "options", the video shows me I have the option to link to drive modes or just select a display. The problem is the only thing I get going to options is pocket gauge options. There is no link to drive mode or other selections. Also on the TV screen if I select settings while the car is on and idling, and you select vehicle there is still no options. If someone has a 2017 and knows how to do this can you help me out. I'm curremtly defaulted to Sport Mode guages which I like, but I wanted to see the track guage. Thanks
You have a choice of setting the center display to Track, Sport, Tour or Link to drive mode. Your option
Using the arrow buttons on the steering wheel under your right thumb:
- scroll left and up/down to SETTINGS in left side menu. Push OK
- scroll up/dn to DISPLAY in center
- scroll right and select Track, Sport, Tour or Link to drive mode in right menu
- scroll left and up/dn and select PERFORMANCE, INFO, etc in left menu
This is easier to do than to write the instructions. Just play around a bit.

Ron it is interesting. When I do that, I do not have an option for settings. I just have "options" Do you have to have car on and running? I will mess around with it more tomorrow.
I don't think the engine needs to be running. As I recall, only a few INFOTAINMENT settings require the engine to be running or in SERVICE mode. In that case the choices are gray if unavailable. But - try it to be sure. You won't break anything.
If you are seeing pocket gauge choices you did not get to the DISPLAY choices, but are still on the SPORT display in the center graphics menu. Scroll up/down until you see DISPLAY and then scroll right.
It is possible that the last entry in the LEFT menu changed from SETTINGS on my 2014 to OPTIONS on my 2019. If so I did not notice since the functions are the same. It's 10 F here so I'm not going to sit in an unheated attached garage to check.
So - left arrow to the LEFT menu starting with INFO, PERF. Scroll up to the top INFO and up one more time - to SETTINGS or OPTIONS. Press OK (center button between the 4 arrow keys). You should now be back to the CENTER menu where the main graphics are. Scroll up or down until you get DISPLAY and Scroll right. You should now see the drive modes. Scroll to what you want - TOUR, SPORT, TRACK, or LINK TO DRIVE MODE. Press the OK button to select. You should now be back to the CENTER menu.
Scroll LEFT and select INFO, PERF, PHONE, MUSIC, NAV, etc. You should now be back to the CENTER menu. Now scroll up / down to the exact display you want.
It really is quicker to play around in the car than to read this. Just READ the screen as it changes when you scroll left / right and up / down. Be sure to press OK to SELECT.

Here is a very good video of what you want to do. I don't know if you have viewed this one, but it is very specific for you. Start at about the 2 minute 30 second part.

Also here is a schismatic hierarchy that may be visually more suitable for you.
Can you like set track mode on sport and track at the same time,
I mostly drive in sport and like the track mode view in sport mode I am not confident to go track all out .

Yes you can. You can have any display for any mode as long as you are NOT linked to drive mode. For example you can have your sport display for tour, sport or track. Or track display in sport and touring. But if you are linked to drive mode the system will automatically select the display for you.
To that same effect, I keep 5 areas of control acting separately; they can be adjusted unilaterally or separately.
However, while HUD has different settings, it is not linked nor can it be linked to the other four.
These are my everyday settings:
drive mode/suspension - set to sport
exhaust - set to track
steering - set to sport
Driver information center - set to tour
HUD - set to track
Note that exhaust and steering are set on the infotainment system / settings (gear icon). If the choice is gray you need to have the motor running or be in service mode.
Service mode - hold the start button for 7 sec or so without pushing the brake or clutch. YOU MUST PRESS THE START BUTTON AGAIN TO EXIT SERVICE MODE.
Play around with the settings - there's a ton stuff to explore.
Another Question with the Stingray 1lt has all setting for ECON,TOUR ,SPORT,TRACK does the ride change With out the MS option
If it doesn't than why have the option to switch them

It will change other characteristics of how the car behaves. Not just how the suspension. See the chart.
Here is a new chart I created that might explain things better... the areas in light blue can be set independently.
I also fixed the (if equipped) for the NPP exhaust, GM missed that one plus clarified the auto vs manual transmission areas.
