Gigahorse Dash

Post by Brasher »

I did a quick search, but couldn't find this.

Is that a MFP shield on the dash of the Gigahorse?

Sorry, but can't recall this being mentioned.

Where did you see that badge exactly? Those are the best shots of the dash I could find for now:

I think it was a front on shot looking though the windscreen at Joe.

The badge would have been on the right hand side of the cluster, (from the drivers point of view, being LHD).

Need to watch it again to be sure.

You've got an eagle eye.. There sure is an MFP badge on the dash. Front on view as you thought. Fantastic spot!!

I never would have spotted that in a million years!

Very cool little nod to the past 8-)

Very cool find. I would never have spotted that.

Is the skull shifter not the same one as of the Nux car? In this picture there is a clear side view of it. There where people looking for a side view of this gear knob for modeling.
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.

Nux's car has a round shifter knob

Staggering find Brasher.
Was Joe the Toecutters brother maybe? Only kidding but of all the nods to the past, the MFP badge is by far the most intriguing.
