Will the game have a drag track?

I love drag strips, how they are just straight and so fast. But if there was a drag strip and you raced other people for pinks, that would be awesome.

 

That would be fun. You could tune the small aspects of your car to improve your time. Pinks would be a bit harsh though. I think betting would be cooler because you won't have to worry about losing your car, just your cash. Just a suggestion though: you should rename the thread "Drag racing." I can guarantee that if the Devs don't make a drag track, 100 people in the community will.

 

Truly, 8 polygons and a skybox would already make a drag track.

 

I would like a drag track, but if there were an option to drag race, I would like to have it done right. I would want to be able to warm up my tires with a burnout before I race, and I would want the tree working and the boards also working. However, I think a drag race is definitely needed.

 

If the flowchart system is kept in-tact with the implementation of BeamNG's physics engine, you will certainly be able to have working boards and tree lights.
What I want to see though is people using these physics not just for vehicles but for parts of the map too like the crash barriers bending when hit etc.. Like in DiRT 2!

 

Ror had a map like that, I forget its name though...

 

It was either racemax, or streetcross. Both by gabester. Never could make the turn without clipping the guardrail.

 

Necrothreading, much?

 

There's always rockfalls in the Community Race Pack...

(Don't use the lua for times though, new update broke it and using it may have unforeseen consequences.)
