Default What is the "ET" value in the Speedometer Display?

I looked around and couldn't find an answer. When I toggle thru the "Step" button menu on my steering wheel, I understand the avg mpg, outside temp, direction, but there's a "ET" display that's around "38:35" for me. Is this engine hours or something?

It works great as a lap timer at the speedway when racing

It's Elapsed Time. However it only works if your Jeep is on. It stops when you remove the ignition key, so it's not like a stopwatch/clock timer that might keep counting when it's off or in "sleep mode", if that makes sense.
