Start Mode Settings. Can this be done?
Hi team.
Does anyone know how to save Sport Mode on startup on the C8 Stingray?

Some early cars will restart in Sport Mode it but it isn't officially supported in the C8 owner's manual, it was standard on C7s. If your car doesn't do it naturally I'm not aware of a method to force it to do it.

My 2021 will restart in Sport, but if your car won't you can setup MyMode to basically mirror Sport.

Yep I drive in two modes:
Z-Mode Power set to Track; Ride set to Sport; Brakes to Track Steering to Sport
My Mode Set to Sport so power to Sport eas is steering, Ride in Sort; Brakes; to Track
So it’s about the same in both. Starts in MY Mode if stoped in MY Mode, so I always do. Exit Z Mode it returns to MY Mode.

No, you can't. MyMode forces the powertrain into Tour Mode, with no way to change it. Sport mode puts the powertrain into, well, Sport mode.
