Field notes
The landing page asks visitors to choose their experience level, then offers beginner, intermediate, and advanced settings that change both shifting controls and stalling behavior. A one-minute introduction sits alongside a direct-play option. The page also links to a ranking and questions about hill starts, finding the clutch bite point, and the fear of stalling at a traffic light.
