|    Brake graphics    |

      From: nuh-uh@nope.com              Up until this race (I believe), whenever the graphic overlay showing       speed and gear and throttle and brake (etc.) was displayed, while the       throttle application always showed the gradual increase of throttle out       of the corner, the brake graphic as always just off or on. Despite       having the same graphic style as the throttle thermometer, it was only       none or full that was ever displayed.              Well that has now changed.              Finally, when they show the overlay, the brake thermometer shows the       gradual easing off of the brakes as the car turns in, and you can see       just how deep into the corner they trailbrake.              It only confirms what I already knew...              ...but it's still neat that we're now being allowed to see it.              I have to believe that this was something the teams weren't willing to       let others see, and that maybe they've finally realized that it's not as       big a secret that deep trailbraking is the way to go.              :-)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
