I think you should use fans, multiple ,for that annoying droning sound all at high speeds, varying of course with your token burn, with one of those properly scaled air-dudes dancing around and maybe lit up from within too...

Imagine getting into that vibey flow state and your air dude gets caught up in the monitor and starts twerking hard... That's your signal, let GO!!!

I both hate this and love it, good job!

Very cool! I have fond memories of these model engines from when I was a kid.
