Some might say that the numbers on the tacho and the clock should be the only ones a racer concerns themselves with Some might even go further and say bugger the tacho - shift by ear
Regardless of the car I always tend to get distracted by my speedo anyway, constantly comparing exit speeds, mid-turn speeds etc. When I turn it off and just concentrate on my lines I tend to drive with a lot more rhythm anyway, which, if not making me faster, at least makes me more consistent. Meh, maybe it's just me being used to GPL with it's complete lack of telemetry In GPL, you have your dash with fuel guage and tacho (and a couple of other dials that don't matter) and your pitboard - which only flashes as you approach the line and only shows your time, position and gap from your previous lap Us geezers like stuff like that. Now get off mah lawn! :geezer:
