thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:GranTrak10 screenshot.jpg

message: and I disagree on whether or not their addition of Steve Wozniak considering Gran Trak 10 to be his favorite game is a good one in this article. The statement is well-supported by RSs, so that's fine, but since Wozniak did not work on the game, or even work directly for Atari at any point, in my opinion it's trivia- "relatively famous person liked this game". We've gone back and forth a couple times, so rather than edit war, I'm requesting additional comment from WT:VG members here. --PresN 16:07, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  3rd opinion on inclusion of Wozniak liking Gran Trak 10 

message: I remember a cabinet of a game that looked just like this (a dot-delimited track, steering wheel etc) at a local shop, and one outstanding feature I noticed was a small glass (or plastic?) plate smeared irregularly with grease, stuck to the screen over a part of the track the middle, raised from the screen by four rubber pads in the corners, to symbol a slippery segment of the track - there was no in-game visual cue the part was slippery but the car handled differently over that segment. Can anyone elaborate on this? Was this some later version or something? Sharpfang (talk) 13:39, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: May have been LeMans (1976), though that has visual oil slicks, or a clone version of that or Gran Trak 10. --PresN 14:46, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: LeMans has its slicks displayed on screen as darker squares though and they change location throughout the game with track changes. I specifically remember this one due to that peculiarity of a crudely greased rectangle of glass, maybe 3x5cm in size, affixed to the CRT screen as the only visual cue there was a slick there. It could have been some unauthorized clone though - it was in Poland, sometime in the 80s, with IP laws non-existent and still behind the iron curtain. Sharpfang (talk) 14:56, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
