I think there should be a penalty for those who throw someone out of the race, like in real life

Just a thought... Could it be that the incident is not as one-sided as one might think.

Maybe there are 2 participants in that incident


edit: I'm not actually asking, it's more of a statement

Usually they are forced to have an extra pit themselves. Don't know if it's always.

GPRO would have to implement electronic race stewards to quell such disputes.

It's also likely that those who have a start incident do so due to their own risks.

And if using real life as a model, would have to get it wrong about 65% of the time.

Fart crashes are worse, that'd really make you want to smash someone's face in.

Still have the drawback of not penalizing the person who caused it. They just penalize everyone within 15 feet of the crash.

True, and you wouldn't want to get close enough to smash their face in either.

Aw, this was my first ever suggestion and my most disliked post to this day.

I've been in New Jersey back then, babysitting my cute little niece and taking guitar lessons from a very knowledgeable jazz player who gave just the info I wanted. +20 Celsius outside every day, and that little coffee place in Princeton...

Oh sorry.

The suggestion is still isnt too bad, but once we consider how many changes in game mechanics will we need to make it all make sense... Not even going into details here. It isnt. :)

How does a jazz musician end up with one million dollars?

He starts out with two million :D

Well.. there could have a random drive through penalty wich it's probability of happening would rise togheter with the risk you use, punishing a few race start rabbits :P

There is no such ting as X crashed int Y at start. That message could have easily said Y crashed into X. They both crashed due to the high risks they used. That accident is a sufficient penalty.


And, as innocent as it may seem, "overtake where possible" is a high start risk. Is, in the end, the 3rd out of 4 levels. Maybe, a name change that may give a better warning of the elevate risk level is required?

I would love to get a few guitar lessons from a professional..I play guitar and have for several years now...self taught with a little help from youtube every once in a while ...by the way are you learning on acoustic or electric?..I assume a jazz player would be on electric..electric is easier to learn on but acoustic is less forgiving and therefore teaches you to play cleaner..I own and play both.I own 4 electrics and 7 acoustics now..my collection keeps growing

on topic.. start crashing sucks unless its planned and all that are involved usually get a penalty if one is not taken out of the race generally will have to pit to repair damage.

Weeeell :) if you play an electric any loud, it is very revealing to your mistakes, especially if you're playing through a proper amplifier and not some digital "nearly-real" BS. The thing with electrics is controlling your sound, and bends and vibratos are actually harder to do since you can actually hear them a lot better on electrics due to a longer sustain. And however simple it sounds, a good vibrato on a bend will take a long way to make properly, and its this kind of details that sets a good player from a bad one.

Aside from that, its of course all the same principles.

I mainly play electrics, got a Tele, a Les Paul and the hilarious Gretsch Bo Diddley. Got a cheap acoustic as well but these days I play it less.

Defly do get some lessons, basic neck awareness and knowing your arpeggios will make you fly in space! :)

If by that you mean changing the dry compound to another one when doing your pit-stop, that's not going to happen. It's already been discussed and dismissed a long time ago:

tx to all, but i've always very low risk settings, expecially in the race, while those who threw me off is always "over the top"... probably it's just bad luck, but it's bit annoying if the driver who hit me has the possibility to still get a good placement in the race
