Very nice. I did take notice of the termperature. Oh, and the speedometer. It's not going into a DeLorean though? Michail Wilson 206-920-6312 -Original Message- From: neonixie-l@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of David Forbes Sent: Saturday, August 14, 2021 4:33 PM To: NeoNixie

heh...I get to cheat on the what the display areas are for, because I know a secret about the car (it used to be mine, after all). Oil pressure, engine temperature (using a thermocouple in one head), RPM, MPH, battery voltage, and odometer. But this is still just a guess. David didn't tell me.
