787B Cockpit Gauges?

[transpaqua]

I'm curious if anyone has figured out what the 2 numerical LCD's in cockpit view signify? Starting at them during the Nurb 24h race is about to drive me crazy.

It was explained before in another thread but I cannot find it at the moment 👎 ..u thought one was a click and one was a lap timer?

Here's two different photos of the actual Mazda 787B interior:

It's likely two different chassis, and unfortunately, the electrics clearly aren't on in the first example.

The one counting down from "99"? That should be your fuel useage. The other one I have no idea.

Hello,

This post....

... and this one are the initial tests.

This post is a summery.

A Fun Read if your interested in any other cockpit.

Hopefully one of these answers your (or anyone else) question.

In the first two links, you'll find other GTPlanet members help explain the "99" number isn't MPG (Miles per Gallon) as I thought, but Litres per 100 Kilometers (how much fuel you'll burn per 100km).

ah! thank you all very much. I've been lurking around here reading for months, and half expected to get flamed for not searching first haha.

But, the fuel gauge actually makes sense now. Which is awesome, because running enduros with the HUD off seems to make time go by faster. Well, that and a good Personal BGM playlist.

I was also wondering about the Weider's wheel displays for a bit, until i fell in love with the Xanavi Nismo GTR '08 for the Super GT seasonal.

After dominating the 24hrs Le Mans with a tuned R8, (12 laps ahead is no fun) I wanted the Nurb to be a challenge. So I chose a stock 787B (limited to cockpit view for the low visibility in rain), running on Rains when full wet instead of Ints. So far, 4 hours in, I can't seem to gain more than 1:30 over the 2J. Funny, I was more worried about the Oreca R8, but I guess I'll see about it if/when it ever dries up.

Once again, thanks for the wealth of information.

Your welcome.👍

If your still wondering about the Weider HSV-010 and missed it, you can read about it here.

.....Along with having a Lap Counter (that lights up after the first lap) and Speedometer in KM's, this car also has a fuel indicator (in Green above the Speedo).
Simply put: Every 100 "clicks" = 10 liters of fuel.
After burning 100L of fuel straight on Special Stage Route X, the Green number INCREASED from "0" to "1000".
After a complete refuel (oddly 101L of fuel) the counter went back to "0"

Good luck in the Nurburgring 24hr.
