Question about photo in Excellence
I have a question about a photo in the May 2010 issue of Excellence. Specifically, on page 97, part of the article on the very cool orange "964 Clubsport".
In the photo at the top of page 97, what is that thing on top of the dash, in the center? Is that some sort of camera, with a front- & rear-facing camera? Just curious....

Doug,
I don't have the photo in front of me, but from your description and the location you mention. It sounds like it is an upshift warning light. When the engine gets to a certain RPM that light will flash and indicate to the driver that they should change gears. Rich

That looks like a GPS lap timer/counter.
