Art is the most subjective thing on earth.  You can't argue art any more than you can argue what smell is best or what taste is best.  It is purely a matter of opinion, and any time you try to force people to recognize your opinion you just come across as pretentious.

Couple things to note: first, sorry for the utterly horrible video quality, but I only had a $20 camera available and I figured that this was better than nothing.  Also, it looks like the last six lights are red, not four as I previously stated; chalk that up to me not being really able to see what's going on to the left of the monitor while I'm concentrating so hard on what's happening on the screen whenever I play.  And finally, the reason I wasn't awarded a 200 point bonus for passing that car on the bridge is because I was wobbling (from touching the yellow line 'shoulder') while I was passing him - it has to be a clean pass to get the bonus.  Had I passed him cleanly, one of the bottom row of lights would have lit up on the bottom row immediately and the red '+200' would have flashed on the screen as soon as I had completed the pass.  And speaking of the little red '+200', it looks like it appears higher on the screen than I realized; you can see from the video that it appears just beneath where the GAME OVER and EXTENDED messages flash on the screen.  I think that's it, any other questions, feel free to ask...

This is fantastic! The video quality is fine, it completely 'does the job' and I totally get how it works now!! Can't wait to start working on the next version of my remake and start adding all this cool new stuff!! I must confess, for the past few months I've had to put my Monaco GP Remake development to one side in order to finish a pretty nasty project at work. BUT things are going well at work and I reckon my plate/head will be clear in about 2 weeks, which is when I will start working on the my remake again :) I honestly can not wait! I have said it all along, and I'm going to say it again, Dr. Morbis thanks so much for being such a great help and taking the time to make the video clip! :)

So I believe all the mysteries of the Pro-Monaco GP Bezel now have been completely solved, time to change the title of this thread!! :O)
