nobody is forcing you guys to race a full length nascar event. you choose to join on a sunday afternoon to race it. if you all hate the length so much then don't sign up or join the sunday when it's active. it's once a week for 2 hours or so... i'm sure you can find something else to do on a sunday afternoon for 2 hours. some of us actually like the full length event but others hate it and that means the people who like it have to suffer because the people who dislike it won't find something else to do while it's active

next race isn't 200 laps long, this time 315

but Phoenix 1 lap is very short, over twice shorter than Daytona, 1 mile lap, instead of 2.5 mile
so this race gonna have 315 miles only, unlike 500 miles Daytona  :L

Indeed. Only around 5 races from 36 will be longer than 2 hours. Other races are even to 45% shorter.

Its just that Daytona was a long and first one with much racers they moan about the length . As Crom said only a few races will be long then 2 hours. If u don't have time just don't join ;)

We would like to see the most poeple involved as possible. Just keep in mind that other races will be for sure less than 2 hours.

I actually like it in full length and I am going to participate in every race. Waited for this NASCAR event for a long time and I don't want to ruin it.

Fair enough.

What are you views on Lap storing? For example, if your car fails (timeout, out of fuel, die, over the fence) you are allowed to start from your current lap?
Code: [Select]
if(PLAYER_Laps[playerid] < 3)  // if a players current lap is less than 3
{
    PLAYER_Laps[playerid] = 1; // reset the player lap to 1, start
}
else // if lap equals 3 or higher
{
    PLAYER_Laps[playerid] -= 1;  //  player lap is decreased by 1
}
?

Out of fuel situation in my opinion should not include lap saving.

Daytona had 2.5 mile long and 200 laps, that gives 500 miles
Talladega got longer track, but less laps, 188 laps
Martinsville and Bristol got for example 500 laps, but 1 lap is 5 times shorter than Daytona lap
Dover got 400 laps and Texas 334 laps

short track = more laps, longer track = less laps
