Not sure there is anything more to wring out of it (especially as red line is almost certainly not the optimum change point).

Suggestion
It should light up when you set the clock running with the car lights on, otherwise it would be pretty useless!

Apart from track day use, does anyone actually use these things - or the sport+ button?

when the car is new and the various options are coded when the car is PDI'd so can be altered using the laptop

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Does the sport chrono clock light up with other dash lights, just been out this evening and noticed no light on the clock, cant remember if it ever did light up.

Mine does on 987.2 but only when in action.
That's interesting. I have a 987.2 and notice that the clock doesn't light up. Never occurred to me to start the thing to see if it lights.
Apart from track day use, does anyone actually use these things - or the sport+ button?
It should light up when you set the clock running with the car lights on, otherwise it would be pretty useless!
Actually, it is pretty useless anyway!!
The clock is the naffest thing in the World. I have never used it except to laugh at it/myself. Sports + is pretty much pointless, too, given that Sports mode goes super aggressive if you are positive with the throttle, anyway.
I expect that PDK and the engine management stuff would go into its most aggressive mode almost instantly under full-bore acceleration in Sport mode, making Sports + redundant. I may be wrong, but I am sure my car has chased the red line pretty hard in Sport mode when I have driven hard. Not sure there is anything more to wring out of it (especially as red line is almost certainly not the optimum change point).

Agreed. Wonder why peeps spec the sport chrono pack in the first place? What else does it give you? I find the sport button is plenty aggressive, and takes you deep into licence losing territory if you ae not careful.
I think it's just the clock and sport + mode. The clock I would rather not have; sport + is funny for scaring my wife when she is driving and I press it...(in safe conditions, of course, before anyone cries about it).
agreed unless you track the car sport plus is a waste of time the clock looks good but thats about it,
My car was a demo and came with it otherwise i would not have bothered
The illumination of the clock can be switched on and off using the Porsche PIWIS laptop

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
