Amazing 
Do they use this to compete in anything. As surely something like that would do amazingly well in something like the time attack series

Such a terrible shame it has to look like a focarse.
Still, I suppose that way he's almost relieved when he smashes the fuck out of it.

It's because when the engine is turned off it would be technically incorrect for the boost gauge to read 0 bar.

Also, to be pedantic, the international standard atmospheric pressure is 1013 millibars
