New Starting Gate Setup

Post by Bloomracing#15 »

Hello. I have been thinking about this idea for a while and it is just an idea so tell me what you guys think.. Some of the smaller sx tracks have a very small starting gate so there has to be too different lines of riders, front and back. I think this would be a great thing for mss servers. If the faster half of the riders started in front and had a couple seconds head start and the slower half started behind them, I think it would help eliminate a lot of the pile ups during starts. I guess the problem is figuring out who is faster during each race because the list changes constantly. It could be set up so that the riders with the faster lap times on "track A" in the past month go in front and the riders with the slowest lap times on "track A" in the past month go in the back.....What does everyone think? good idea? is it possible?

Pretty much you are talking about AX tracks, in which case there is a 2 lane start.

Alright. Go re-read what e said. I'm guessing you didn't read past the 4th sentence.

I don't agree with the idea or care, but at least I read the whole thing before I commented.

Gonna go ahead and say this is a bad idea. If you put the slower guys in the back, and make them start later, they have to work 10x harder to try and prove that they belong in the front row. Plus, the way you're saying, pretty sure the server would have too much to read, I could be wrong though. I don't know much about servers, but that's what it sounds like. If this were to happen (very unlikely) it'd probably just go by the results of the previous race.
