Stupid question about PDK

What is the purpose of the clock in the middle of the dash on PDK cars?

To be clear, the Sports Chrono Clock is really NOT linked to the PDK gearbox i.e. you can have a manual car WITH the Sport Chrono clock and you can have a PDK car WITHOUT the Sports Chrono clock...

Thanks for that, I hadn't realised. Assumed the two were connected on the options list in some way.

He right, I have PDK, I don't have sports-chrono.

Still a fair question though. Presumably, you can operate the stopwatch / clock thing from the steering wheel to record your lap time?

A useful feature if you are trying different racing lines, breaking points or whatever you racing types like to do. Maybe not a lot of use in normal use

Yep. I use it sometimes on the road just to make myself giggle like a schoolgirl at how stupid it looks. It is also helpful for showing my wife that the drive to my parent's house takes 10 mins less when I drive.
