Track pace on dashboard is missing!

On multiple YouTube videos I see a setting for track pace where you can measure 0-60 times, my car is missing this option does anyone know why?

Because you have a 2017 car that’s been sold as a 2018 in the United States. The 2017 dont have track pace or the updated interior ambient lighting controls.

tony_f8 is correct. I have a 4/17 build, no track pace app, no fancy lighting controls. I was at an AMG Driving Academy event over the past weekend, I did get to chat with a product manager for AMG, a guy based in the US, and I let him know that their $100k+ sedan, designed for track use, had no track pace app. He had no idea. He took my email addr and said he'd look into it.

His immediate advice was to squawk to the dealer and have them raise it with MB USA. But I'll see if the guy i spoke with can find out more, though I suspect, based on prior investigations from others, that the answer will be "nein".

You won't be able to do anything.

I contact MB Canada and Germany many times and the answer were always the same. The cars built in those date didn't get the track pace and the fancy ambient light.

The only way to get it is by changing the module of the car (hardware) and they won't do it.
