Haven't you noticed that digital number thingy on the left corner of
the dash. That's the speedometer. There is no speedometer in real
stock cars. Just the tachometer.

What the hell is a tracometer?  Does it show where you are on the
trac ?  Maybe they have tracometers in tanks to tell you which
trac is going faster.  I'll ask my army friends.

I can understand what you mean, If my car had a tracometer then it
wouldn't help me to know when to change gears at all. My car has
wheels instead of tracs because tracs would tear up the road.

Thank god they put a tachometer in instead...I would have been really
confused.  I'd drive straight off the road thinking my car had tracs and
end up bogged. :-)  Maybe a tracometer was an optional accessory
that I had to ask for separately.  If I knew NASCARs had tracometers
then I would've got one in my car.

Me thinks you've never seen the inside of a REAL racing car.

I think GP2 is cool because you don't get a tracometer there either,
you get a green-green-yellow-red-light-o-meter.  You can change
the***pit to make it a purple-blue-pink-cyan-light-o-meter if you
want.

      get to 80% dl - it better be worth it)

ROTFLMAO! You really shouldn't do this to a guy first thing in the morning,
I spluttered coffee everywhere!
