It doesn´t solv the problem with a runnaway car going beond the finishline under full throttle. But hopefully that won´t happen until they have come up with something.

HOW?? When was the last time you were at the end of the track. 99% of the time you can,t till who wins by looking at the end. I am looking at the score board to see who won.
