Driving
3.9
Track
Track mode increases settings for a track environment
sacrificing comfort for performance. The transmission uses
the fastest and harshest gear shifts, and the steering weight is
further increased. The suspension will also provide the stiffest
level of damping with ride height the same height used in sport
mode. The diffuser flaps will again be dynamic and there will be
the highest level of engine braking.
Whilst in Track mode, TC is adjustable with ESP Off (Refer to
’Traction Control System (TCS)’, page 3.12)with access to the
Urban (U), Sport (S), Track (T) and Off ESP modes. The ERS
function is available to provide an increase in available torque
(Refer to ’ERS Boost’, page 3.18).
Track Mode with Track Front Clamshell
Warning: The optional front track clam is not
homologated for road use. Never use this vehicle on the
public highway with the track clam installed.
(Optional)
With the optional track front clamshell installed, this unlocks the
ride height to be dropped by 55 mm on the front and 64 mm at
the rear relative to Urban mode. ESP, active aero, suspension and
steering will now use an unique track calibration for optimum
performance. TPMS will also be calibrated to suit higher tyre
pressures.
Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
Warning: It is the driver's responsibility to drive safely
according to the law and with due regard to prevailing
conditions.
Warning: Electronic Stability Program (ESP) must never
let the driver be tempted into taking risks which could affect
his or her safety or that of other road users. ESP cannot
overcome consequences of applying too much engine power
for prevailing conditions.
ESP is designed to improve driving safety when the tyres are at the
limits of their grip capabilities. This is done by control of engine
torque and application of the brakes at individual wheels.
Caution: If repair or replacement of the steering or other
surrounding equipment is necessary, always refer to your
Aston Martin Dealer. There is a sensor in the steering system
which detects steering angle. If the centre position of the
steering deviates, the ESP may not operate correctly.
Caution: ESP may not operate correctly when using snow
socks.
Caution: Use tyres of the same manufacturer, brand, type,
tread pattern and correct size specified in this handbook for
this vehicle on all four road wheels. Do not mix new and worn
tyres on the same axle.
