Missed the ability to downshift at the end of the strip!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Really neat you show the clutch engagement, not sure what the torque output of the motor is, I suspect linear perhaps so shifting at the last possible moment being the best point, I could be completely wrong about that."},{"author_name":"dollarone","author_uid":"45147","time":"May 8, 2016 @ 11:34pm","epoch":1462750140,"text":"sorry man, can't run it in linux - Segmentation fault (core dumped) - and it's all pitch black in windows."},{"author_name":"ReactorScram","author_uid":"29177","time":"Aug 20, 2016 @ 2:20am","epoch":1471659300,"text":"dollarone: I might know why it's black on some GPUs.
