Yeah I'm up and about (for now) and I've been looking through my arcade pile.  Dear god I've got to get rid of some of this stuff.  I've got 4 death race wheels... I'm thinking of constructing an under-dash assembly to use one of them as a optical wheel.  If I do that and make a removable hub for the FF wheel that should allow me to play offroad and pole position as well.  I've gotta go to Lowes this evening anyway, so I thought I'd look for suitable bearings while I'm there. 

Yeah the doctor's are particularly frustrating.  I think I'd be more sympathetic if they actually done something besides stare at me for a minute and get out the prescription pad.  I've been 4 times now... they haven't taken a single culture or done a single scan.  It's the equivalent of trying to fix a pc by randomly buying parts off the internet without ever bothering to open the case and look for something obvious.  I called to get a referral from my primary physician yesterday, because apparently the medical industry thinks I'm not capable of the judgment to go to a specialist when needed. They informed me that he wasn't in but they'd give him the message.  So at the rate I'm going this time next spring I might get to see someone who actually knows what they are doing. :)

Granted it's not available yet, just a interesting twist on instrumentation. Who knows, it might be something that someone can do something cool with someday..  ;)

After seeing some of the Digital displays on the Supercars... I might be kinda changing my opinion of the non mechanical speedo.

 Very cool looking graphical color changes and animations...

 But as said before...  I think with some high res photos, and a decent quality display.. one could make some really realistic looking dashes.

Fursphere:
Sorry to bump an old thread - but did anyone ever get any of these ideas actually working in their cabs?
