The current design differs from its predecessor by shortening the throttle level, enhancing driver control over power distribution even during rapid acceleration. This modification allows drivers to maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel without constantly pressing down the throttle. To optimize usability, the new design combines the natural feel of a wheel with the easy-to-steer yoke grip. The top of the wheel serves as a visual cue for the degree of turn, either through an integrated level or subconscious assessment. Ergonomic considerations ensure the wheel is comfortable to hold and access to airbreak, chutes, and throttle controls is straightforward. Rejection of a button-based throttle stems from difficulty in adjusting rocket power; instead, a spring-loaded lever is utilized, providing safety benefits as well. The throttle mechanism can be cable or electronically driven. Electronic switches manage airbreak, chute, and rocket start functions. Behind the rocket start button, space is provided for an airbag that automatically cuts power to the rockets upon deployment. The speedometer's prominent position underscores the car's fast-paced nature. Most buttons are hidden, as they are not primary focal points during operation. Constructive feedback and good luck to all participants are encouraged.
