If we’re getting technical, the Mercury strap-on retro booster was intended to slow the spacecraft down (and de-orbit).

I must say though, this game is thoroughly in the uncanny valley for me.

I’ve been saying something simple about this... If the town doesn’t want your business, they can suck a fat one. Don’t give them any of your money and see how their tune changes.

Improving 1.4 seconds on a 1 min lap is HUGE when you are racing. It’s not a 3% improvement. Calling it a 3% improvement implies that you can still make a 97% improvement.

Impeccable sideburns?
