I like it.
Maybe make the green display higher, so you can put the digital speedometer in there..

I haven't done it myself. But the wiki is I believe helpful.

Digital speedometer
Data type: Pairs of bytes

Address: (154h,155h), (156h,157h) and (158h,159h)

This is a funny one. To have a digital speedometer first one needs to have a STDB* file containing the dig0...dig9 bitmaps used for the digits (the classic solution is to clone the Corvette STDB*). Additionally, a dashboard with proper contrast must be chosen (even if the game can switch number colours automatically depending on the background, some dashboards will still look awful). Then, byte 150h must be set to 0h. That will trigger the analog needle to disappear and be replaced by the set of digits, whose coordinates are controlled in the usual fashion by the three pairs, which stand for the first, second and third digits from left to right respectively. As for the coordinates' reference frame, it is stda* ins2 bitmap, just as for the analog speedometer.

That digital speedometer BTW, I thought it's impossible to have round numbers instead of square. You should keep this

Damn, you are fast (again)...

But yes. I had something more old school in mind like the McLaren has. But yeah.  It is fitting I think.

It's old school like a LCD Matrix display from calc.

I think you have made more cars in a few months than all of us combined in 10 years...

So, I don't consider you a newbie in this regard...

New evolution : the front light are bigger and the gear ratio closes to the speed of the IMSA version...except the 5th which are calculated for the straight Line of the hunaudiere !
