I think it is great you can actually use Sport+ (in auto mode) on normal roads, and not just the track. If you work it just right, you can make your tach look like it is on crack. YMMV
I was pretty sure I had read that before. My guess is everything is working as it should, but OP was expecting his .2 to act like prior 911s in Sport+. Also, I am guessing dark SC clock is just the toggle via setting. Then again, I could be full of ****.

So now that you guys mentioned that I went back to settings and date/time. The chrono was not checked. So that is working. As for the sport plus. The 991.1 was a beast in sport plus. Almost not useable in regular traffic. It definitely shifts much sooner then the 991.1

It actually was unusable in regular traffic unless you enjoyed driving around town in 1st gear all the time. Obviously that could be overcome driving in manual mode all the time, but why have a PDK, if that is your desire?

+1, if you drive in automatic. I spend much of my time in "manual" mode, where it'll go to redline in normal, sport, or sport+, until you shift it with the paddles. That's why I don't see much of a difference between Sport and Sport +. When go from Sport to Sport +, the throttle map doesn't change.

And Sport, alone, doesn't hold its gear for THAT much longer than Normal.

Looking forward to seeing the outcome.
To me there is a noticeable difference between sport and sport+; more responsive for sure. Driving gentle, sport will shift around 3K RPM and sport+ around 4K. If you hammer it, it should hit redline. Never drove a .1 but I also heard sport+ was unusable except in very spirited driving or on track.
