Looking great, but why are the dials turned a couple of degrees? Andre > >Enjoy! >KD - GPLSF > > >

Isn't it standard practice in race cars to turn the rev gauge so that shifting rpm is at 12 o'clock? -Laurens de Jong, The Netherlands. ----------------------------------------------------------- Got questions? Get answers over the phone at Keen.com. Up to 100 minutes free! http://www.keen.com

Yes it is. And every other gauge is normally turned so that normal reading is striaght up at 12 o'clock as well. The driver during a race dosn't need to know, or care about specific numbers. All he wants to do is make a quick glance and that everything is ok. Rotating the gauges allows this to be done in a fraction of a second. This is the reason it has taken digital readouts to become popular, they have been less amenable to this.
