It's just to make sure the challenge level for driving these cars is
high enough. You wouldn't want to get bored while driving, right?
Seriously, bouncing mechanical gauges (speedo, mechanical tachs) are
almost always due to a bad cable. My tach cable was bad and it bounced, but
to rotating with my fingers it feels fine. Replacing it fixed the problem;
it's now rock-steady.
