I am not sure if this has been said before but I am going to presume it hasn't and suggest an idea.
A lot of people have been angry at the Elegy for 'ruining' the Sports class and there has even been talk of moving it to the Super category. People have also mentioned that some cars just don't get enough love as there isn't currently any way to limit people to a set of specific cars.
So what I was thinking is there should be an option like you have 'set weather', or 'select class', to 'ban' certain cars from racing. In a crew this isn't a huge problem but when racing with randoms it would allow you to force people certain cars to add a variety to racing.
Anyways, that's my idea and it has probably been suggested before, else, let me know what you guys think.

To be honest the elegy would not fit in the super class, it has the pace but not the looks. Therefore i think it should be nerfed to be on the pace with the Massacro and Feltzer.

The problem is if you ban the fastest car, most people will just use the 2nd fastest car and so on. uless they like a particular car like a 9F or Turismo that are on pace but harder to drive, most youtube reviews don't do these car any justice. also some tracks dont even allow some cars, for example long straigs needs high top speed and a few cars in this game can't handle any curbs, wich makes these cars less common. And one last point, alot of races are won with concistency rather then fastets laptimes, so winning with a lesser car is defenetly possible and it feels great when you beat a lobby of elegy's in a banshee  . |

Ok thanks I think my idea is slightly different because you don't remove any car but just allow the option for certain cars to not be used in a particular race.

so basically the car selection menu from the creator and placing that in the race lobby menu? |

and how should this work with custom cars? I mean, if I had only an elegy in the sports class and someone removed it from the list of possible cars, I would be screwed.
Btw if I am racing people I know and we don't want to use a certain car we just say, agree to not use the elegy or the massacro (if the others all have another custom car available).

Then this option would only be available in non-custom car races to make it more completely fair. |

That selection allows you to only choose one car whereas this would let you choose several. However, if that system was implemented into the race lobby menu it would be a good substitute for my idea and would be much easier to do. I would still prefer if you could choose cars to ban in that race as opposed to forcing one but any feature that restricts car options would be good. |

IMO, race what you want to race and let others do the same.
The classes are what they are.
Outside of the Elegy (which has some serious snap oversteer at half throttle), the Sports car class is pretty well balanced. Feltzer, Massacro, Jester and 9F are all competent cars that can win any given race. The Super class is even better balanced IMO.

And what if you are racing with someone who you don't know and he's a dick and would just do it on purpose? |
