Arcade vs simulation driving model?

Too bad times can't record apart the two, I am betting all records were arcaded

Hey Guys

So the game itself sends the Lap/Track time to the server, on arrival it get stored in the DB.
The game sends the "local" time from the DC to prevent lag/sync to be a factor.

That being said, I would guess the inconsistent times are from players using somekind of modded DC?
Maybe the game sometimes misses a lap and adds together too few laps for the track time, this is just
me guessing.

But just send me an email on really clear faulty times and I can with ease remove them. I can also do script that checks for too high time-interval between first and second place, but that might be risky if someone does a really good time.

I will also extend (later) the leaderboard so you can see top 3 on each lap/track time, than it will be easier to see faulty times.

FYI, Shu's customer service email is on this page.

We need to do Boar Polo ! lol
As for Monaco I would like to be removed completely from the leaderboards. Tired of hearing about it lol.
@ Holsten.. Shu does care or we wouldn't have these games online.

Haha Mech you will stay, just do some cleaning, when it is obvious the game reported the wrong time.
Not anyones fault

i see the times i metioned have changed but they are still not beatable if you drive the fastest lap time in each lap

Well at least my hacked dreamcast isnt to blame now
