BOYB, redefined.
Wonder if these guys ever get that...Pike's Peak 12/10/22. 14,116ft, 17°F. I will say, driving up does have a little pucker factor involved.

Yeah... just over 6 minutes. It took me an hour and I topped out around 25 to 30 mph. You get above the tree line you'll start hogging the middle of the road.

The "too close to the edge" pucker meter?
Tachometer lights. It's a visual tachometer in light form so they can see when to shift. Seeing LED lights in your lower peripheral is way easier, and quicker, than trying to read a tach and see the actual red line; or see numbers if they use that type of tach.
Lots of race cars have those nowadays. I know Formula 1, Le Mans, and Super GT use them. And some of the higher-end road cars have them, too.

Still like my "pucker factor" lights theory though.... but I guess those would be more mustard yellow to dark brown.
