Where is the "Race" Update?

We still need to write some kind of anti-cheat measure; probably hashing of all the game and vehicle data so people can't give the cars extra torque or grip without being disqualified. Why the whole game? Because you could increase torque and grip without editing the vehicles. We also need to pretty it up and fix up the UI (since we recently replaced the old UI drawing system with a new one that doesn't work yet). There may or may not be 3rd person gauges in the race update; we have a working numberless tachometer right now as a test. There's other stuff too... like I said it's not up to me to code it, so I can't say with any authority.

i have a good idea. make it so you (the server owner/starter) provides the vehicles, and the client cant access their own vehicles. same pc racing uses the same files, so there is no issue there. leader board posting will need verification and should be one chance (mouse can't leave window), and modded should go to a separate board with the mods listed.

The lap timing will be on your own computer and sent to a master server, not on multiplayer servers, so we need to hash all of the game data to stop people from cheating.

The fact that the top bar has changed, makes me believe it will come within the next 2 weeks. "Race" update coming eventually! Featuring the Bolide 390 GTR, race lap timing, roll cage for the Covet, improved performance, and much more!" Christmas at most.

They were hoping early 2014. Eventually sounds farther than soon.

Actually, wait. You are absolutely correct. Dang it. I wish they would just release the new bolide and handling improvements now (even though I am one of the few people who can actually drive it).

Couldn't people just deassemble the game during runtime and trace their way to the timer and then do what they want with it?
