    • @SemiMobilLampShade
      @SemiMobilLampShade 5 ปีที่แล้ว +39

      Actually funny enough for the 205 t16 Evo2 that isn't a pure boost gauge. It's a purpose made barometer to manage the most accurate reading from using the Garrett T31 (11 blades steel turbine 56.62/64.95mm in/out diameter, 7+7 blades aluminum compressor 54.92/75.95mm in/out diameter) turbocharger with air/air intercooler, Bosch K-jetronic multipoint hydraulic fuel injection when they ran them between 2.6 and especially 3.0 bar. Absolutely beautiful machine through and through. Was glad to have the chance to sit in one while over in Europe back in 2010!

      @SemiMobilLampShade 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      @@superbarnie I meant what I said. A boost gauge is more specialized than a normal barometer these days. In the original Group B T16 Evo2 they just slapped a traditional barometer in the car that was slightly built up to give a more accurate reading of the boost pressure at the top end of the rev range. Other type of monitors today are commonly boost controllers as well as simple gauges for information display.
      Back then the driver had to rely much more on their knowledge of the boost pressure in the T16 along with the massive amounts of lost pressure from poor shifts if the driver was making mistakes. Instead of any part really being managed by an ECU for the BEST boost via digital parameters it was mainly the driver.
      It seems like a semantic based argument for me to make but the cars are special for a reason. This was a mechanical beauty and the drivers smart enough to respect and learn the car saw the most success with it. Just remember the T16 used a barometer.

      @C.I... 6 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Grid 2 was such a missed opportunity!
      Most of the draw of the first game was the absolutely crazy difference between it and every other game of the time in terms of the interaction with the environment, other cars, and the running of your team/sponsors and liveries.
      Ever since Grid, Codemasters has for some reason consistently scaled that way down with each new game, so as far as I know the first game is the only track racing game with individual tyres in the huge stacked barriers around the tracks, hired teammates, simple but effective livery and sponsor customisation, fighty AI and really weighty gritty wrenching crashes. The trend of amazing sound design started with this game too.
      It still holds up, but If they released Grid today with weather, pitstops, more tracks, and realistic handling, I think I would cry tears of joy.

      I loved the dash-cam view in Grid Autosport though. They were like the dash-cams in the original Dirt rally and Dirt 4, which i thought looked perfect. Dirt rally 2.0's dash-cams look just like a second cackpit view but with the wheel missing. It wouldn't bother me if you had more adjustment in camera position in cackpit view, so you could adjust it to a position that looks correct with a steering wheel.

      Out of interest, guys, how does GRID 1 hold up as a sim? I see people referring to it as "arcadey" but with all the assists off it still seems pretty difficult and finnicky to me, other than the lack of weather/tire wear/refuelling.

    In real live the T16 was the easiest Group B top car to drive. It was really easy to handle. The Delta S4 was more extreme, because the weak point was the rear axle. The Audi was with the front engine like an arrow. Very stable at jumps and high speed straights, but horrible to force into corners.
