There are people better than me on this corner so I want their fast line blocked! Have you got the game still? If not then Sugar_Free_Nos can replace you. Have him replace me. I forgot about it but I still haven't found my copy of the game again. Not buying another one so close to PC release! |

I would like to hear Broughy1322 opinion on this. Why the short cut, is that more important than the lamp post that always lies in the street?
Well, as someone who can only make that move less than 20% of the time, I tend to go around the pole. However, those that do not take the line between the buildings can cause just as much trouble if not more if they go to wide in their exit and take out one or two poles on the left side. Not only is diving between the poles faster, but the exit is safer and smoother too. So both have risks. My opinion is block it off, not necessarily because I can't do it consistently. I think it should be blocked off to make the track a bit more.... professional? Realistic? Diving between two poles at over 100 mph is not something we would see in real circuits obviously. If the poles could be removed, I'd be happier with that, which leaves the best line alone. This isn't an argument about whether this game is an arcade racer or a sim racer. Let's just focus on the safety. That's why there is now a pitlane and a yield rule for the crossover (That so has to go in the next-gen remake). |

With 4 days left until this event it would be a bit too late to change things up now. The pole cut actually widens the track a bit so more cars can get through without crashing. People have been taking this line for months, changing it now would be a massive fuck you to those guys.

I mean, the big lamppost always causes big problems when there is lag involved.You can't avoid it, and it's going to fuck you up on the downhill section big time... wish there was a way to leave it there, to not let it come down, and to not block off the cut. Maybe a barrier with the right angle stuck inside the lamppost, so that it can't come down and that people can take the shortcut and the normal road just fine. Don't know if would work tho. The barrier should be stuck like this inside the lamppost: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lCgsVCIDlk&list=UUtq9Cy_z9dyijNgGP9kPHxQ |

I actually wanted to ask Broughy to consider blocking that gap with a barrier as well as the lampost so it cant fall in the middle of the road and ruin other people's races which has happened so many times (honestly its by far the most common incident on that track) and resulted in altering the results of races. Not only that but I believe that squeezing between tight gaps ruins the feel of the race track.
Personally I think that the track would improve massively by putting a barrier there as well as the other tight gap that is right in the end of that long fast right hander, at the entrance point of the slow technical section under the green building.
