Well, I've flaked on the followup of my previous post. I know, I know. My day job has been rather intense lately. I apologize.
However, I do want to share one unrelated thing.
Did anyone ever play the game "Hard Drivin'" when they were a kid? Well, I did, and I was obsessed with it. It was challenging, addictive, exciting, and fun. (As an aside, I recently had an opportunity to play it again at FunSpot in New Hampshire, and it was exactly as I remembered).
Anyhow, I've recently stumbled upon this. Commence ridiculous awesomeness:
Notice how when he changes gear, the 401cr pops up quickly to simulate a sudden reduction in the acceleration of the car. This is presumably easier than translating the entire unit forwards and backwards.
