Default ICE in reverse (was Hitch Stuff...)

I finally got the ICE to kick in in reverse and it sure does give a boost - almost feels like a turbo boost. It didn't do it for me before when I tried on flat pavement, but I did it today on sand.

Now, I sure would like to know the mechanics behind how this works.

Default Re: ICE in reverse (was Hitch Stuff...)

I was thinking about that......

I propose a scientific test.....(ok not really).....

While in reverse somebody (preferally the passenger) needs to look at the Nav power distribution Display and see where it shows the ICE power going.

It doesn't show. But, the display doesn't show the actual going-ons of the vehicle, ironically.
