Default Z mode button
I would like to use my z mode button to put my z51 into race 1 or race 2 mode. I can't find anything in the book to help. Can anyone here help me.

Just go into the screen and play. It’s very simple to setup. Takes all but 2 minutes.

Sounds like you want to setup the PTM MODES. It’s all in the infotainment screen. Just scroll through and you’ll find it. It’s very simple.

The PTM setting is one of the options on the Z mode screen (assuming you have a Z51 and magnetic ride control). If you set it to one of the available PTM settings it will also crank up your engine/shift settings to Track and maybe the suspension settings too. One advantage to doing this is that you can then press the Z mode button twice to put the car in launch control mode.

If you have a Z51 with Magride you can change your PTM settings in Z mode...

If you've got a 2024, the Settings > Vehicle > Drive Mode Customization screens look a little different than Tadda's pic.
Functions the same.
