There's a group that likes to drive their cars 'like they stole them' which is fine as it's their cars to do with what ever they please. If you don't drive your car that way you will benefit down the road when it comes to out of pocket expenses for unwanted repairs.

I find it useful when I'm on the track. I'd forget from time to time when I'm too engaged with all the cars around me.

g-on / s-on

G-on/off toggles the gear number being shown. S-on/off toggles the econo shift indicator (up arrow) on or off.
