# WakeSpeed

**Turn a vanilla Minecraft boat into a race car.**

Supports **Fabric 26.1.2 and 26.2**.

## Gauges

Three dashboards you can switch between at any time:

– **Bar** — rally-style segmented LED strip, green → yellow → red, with a white turbo bar underneath
– **Dial** — classic needle gauge; a small disc above the hub fills like a pie slice to show turbo pressure
– **EV Meter** — square panel showing power (kW), current (A), voltage (120 V) and motor RPM

Gasoline mode has a rev-limiter jitter at the top of the range; EV mode is PID-stable and barely moves. The turbo readout hides automatically in EV mode.

## Audio

**Gasoline** — engine, turbo whistle, blow-off valve, clutch and gear-shift sounds, each with its **own volume slider (0–200%)**.

**Electric** — a real motor recording. Full spool in 0.23 s, silent within 0.1 s of lifting off, completely quiet at standstill. No idle, no regen whine, no gear shifts.

One toggle switches between the two drivetrains.

## Racing Camera

The camera follows the boat’s heading with smooth interpolation, so fast corners no longer throw your view around. On by default, can be turned off, smoothness is adjustable.

## Extras

– **Minimap**, **drift timer** with burnout detection, **lap timer**
– **Ice recolour** — ice → orange-yellow, packed ice → light grey, blue ice → dark grey. Three states: always on / always off / auto-on-boat (turns on when you board, restores when you step off)
– Every HUD element can be toggled and positioned by percentage
– Unified settings screen on **F9** (also **F10**), bilingual labels
