    Great Idea for racing top racers! Feel free to steal it : )

    Top Features of my idea:
    Race against top racers anytime
    Share real-time playbacks and interact with them

    Implementation: moderately easy for Devs? (I hope)

    You go to Hirochi Raceway, you see a screen that shows the top times across all users of BeamNG, These users have uploaded their score and playback, the uploaded file contains the exact recorded inputs from the game session as well as the car used.

    User1 ------ Time 1:01:3 ----- playback(Download)
    User2 ------ Time 1:03:3 ----- playback(Download)
    User3 ------ Time 1:13:3 ----- playback(Download)
    User4 ------ Time 1:45:3 ----- playback(Download)
    User5 ------ Time 1:50:3 ----- playback(Download)

    Race against top racers anytime
    you pick someones name and it has a recorded session from them (uploaded) this session has thier race recorded. You have 3 options (Watch replay / ghost playback / challenge)

    Replay -- Plays a replay of the race allow you to move the camera around
    Ghost Playback -- You race the car as it plays the replay, the car is not interactive (non - collision)
    Challenge -- same as Ghost Playback but the car is collidable, (warning when you hit the car it breaks the playback)

    Share real-time playbacks and interact with them!

    It looks like an input based replay system wouldn't work, but whatever works it would be cool to have a uploaded replay file, I wish I was a expert programmer because I would defiantly make it

    If the car is a mod, the car's file would be in the folder too?

    I would assume that the game would only allow replays of installed mods.

    The replay data would be in the code for the game lua so anything can be recorded in theory
