I know this has been mentioned many times before but jlv for the next snapshot can you get rid of or make the front end lock different. For example instead of hitting someone's back tire and crashing 100 feet later do to front end lock make it to where it doesn't lock as long if you know what I'm trying to say. Like make it lock for 15-20 feet instead of the what it feels like 100 now. Hope you understand what I'm trying to say. If not I'll try explaining it better.

It's no longer "Front wheel lock". All that happens is your roll stability is drastically lowered by some percentage (i believe) and tapers back in after a few seconds. You can actually save it if you are precise enough.

That said, it definitely needs to be revamped. Its super annoying falling over after grazing a downed rider.

I've suggested that the front end just be jolted in some direction instead. This would preserve the penalty for hitting someone while still making situations like navigating downed riders saveable.

You probably crash if that happens in real life too. I don't know though I've never raced.

This video makes me sad every time I see it. Looks like such a better experience. Wish jlv would put some insight or reasoning behind why it is now

He added it because there was no penalty for punting people, now if you hit someone you get the front end lock.

I wish servers could toggle it, so when rF comes around we can turn it off because you get banned for punting regardless.

Would make sx racing much more fun.

I wish that it could go back to that 2010 collisions, looks like the battles would be actually be entertaining compared to right now battling means whose gonna fall off / get stuck behind a lapper first.

Why couldn't we have this again? Granted it made it so that punting was easier to do back then, it also made it so that you could bar bang, if there is somebody constantly punting then just say fuck it and give them a ban...Rush...
