Napf Overpoch / Re: Wanted! Server Event Ideas!

I think this was done once or twice before, but I'd really like to see motor racing as a server event. With all that twisty mountain roads and complex city street layouts, we can easily put together a 'rally stage' or street circuit, get some racing cars or bikes, and have some fun.

On the subject of rally racing and racing events in general. Corner cutting comes to mind when talking about unfair racing (pssst I'm a dirty corner cutter too).
I think some adjustments need to be made to promote fair play.

Not using the Nissan 350z. I know it is a thrill to both watch and drive this beast. However, it is as fast on dirt as it is on asphalt which makes corner cutting a breeze.

Set up a checkpoint system. This comes in the form of an arch or a gate. Players have to go through the checkpoint. Miss 1 checkpoint = 1 penalty. 1 penalty = 1 second of 'full stop and go' at the 'penalty area'. This 'penalty area' is located near to the finish line. Fail to serve penalty = disqualification. Penalties can stack.

Mix and match. Without the Nissan, it's not as fun. Without the checkpoints, one guy will go on a straight line from start to finish. With both: not enough freedom. Without both: chaos.
