A drag race is planned in the Hungarian League. We will use this track and I put a small addon together to have it as a night race
If you'd like I can post our race method later.
That is cool! Many thanks.
I think many would be interested to hear about your race methods too.

Here is the way we will do it:
- We start in pairs in a drop-out system.
- Pairs will be selected randomly, then we enter the server pairs after pairs - keeping the start order.
- After everyone joined, chatstop starts and the starer (one of the race admins) calls the first pair.
- Racers of the first pair type "OK" when they are ready to start.
- Starter type "START" and the racers begin their short trip

- After finishing sector one, racers must finish the whole lap and cross the start line again, then exit from the track with an esc-enter.
- After all pairs ran their race, we will have a second round, repeating all runs. This gives the opportunity for a better result.
- After the second round, drivers exit from the server.
- Race admins analize the server replay and say who has the better time from each pairs.
- Losers will be ranked after their best times.
- Winners will be put into pairs again, and the join the server again.
- Losers can also join the server to watch the runs, but they must enter only after the winners.
Some rules:
- Drivers must not leave their lanes (in the first sector). If one crosses or touch the line between the lanes, he has lost the race, all his times and drops out.
- Those who will not finish their lap, will be dropped too, and their time won't be in the results. (You cannot get sector times from replay of an unfinished lap.)
- If the number of entries is odd, then who pulls the last draw will run alone - but will have only one round.
- If the number of entries is odd after one or more races, one of the loser drivers (who has the best time up to that point) automatically qualifies himself for the next race.
I hope it's all clear. If you got any question I will try to answer them

If you got better ideas I will read with interest
