SakiBombI thought you might be able to press the horn once which might make it possible to pick up a 2nd boost if you did it quick enough. Didn't know you could hold the horn to pick up multiple boosts. If you can pass on any other dirty little secrets, please, do tell.

 Yea, if you hold the horn, as soon as you pick something up it'll use it (missles & boosts). Something I learned while doing a bunch of UnspokenOuch's tracks, including BIGGEST Jumps- Extreme! If I was in 1st, I'd use both strips of boosts and leave everyone else helpless... It was hilariously evil...  |

The idea has potential. Suggest one row of 8 pickups used in an 8 man race situated behind the start line is how this would work best.

Shame it's not available in races though I'm sure it will not go to waste, only being available and free-roam seems a little too far-fetched for me to believe. I think there will be a KERS option for racing in the next update, or at least I hope there will be. It doesn't seem logical for Rockstar NOT to make KERS a thing in racing online. |

LMFAO Rockstar logical. Thats fucking rich. Are you in town all week? |

If this does become a thing then I'll actually have to learn how to racecraft...

Not at all. Its a complete fail to be honest because people only ever use it on one part of the track. Basically wherever you get the biggest benefit which is usually like a hairpin leading to high speed straight. The only time someone doesnt do that is when they accidently use it when they panic horn or if they never got a boost. It essentially just makes your LS a self destruct button for however long you hold onto the boost and has no real effect on racecraft since every single person will be using it at the exact same moment. There just isnt any strategy to it. Once you know the best way to the boost you will never purposefully use it anywhere else again and thus it may aswell not even exist. This is basically what happens when you dont use your "KERS" in the correct place. |

... .... ..... ...... This is basically what happens when you dont use your "KERS" in the correct place. Awesome The Fast and The Furious remark there and it's exactly what happens. Logical thing to do for us and indeed makes the KERS boost useless, at least the way we implement it now. The way the new bike uses it would have much more potential to add something to the racing environment |

There's a very easy way to prevent people from using the boosts inmediatly and getting more than one: Put 3 or 4 rows of boosts right before a corner, they wont be able to boost before braking
