Quote from al heeley :

Racer Y: Great idea, I love it! I want a hotty chic on standby to soap my car down after a race too.

Actually I was pretty serious about that idea. Trouble is,
when you figure in all that math and coding and whatever that
would be required....lol I just didn't think it was worth the "credits"

But something ought to be done with them. They shouldn't just be scrapped.
I still like the gambling idea. I think that could add a new dimension of play without compromising or watering down anything - and name a race sim with
interactive, off track betting.

i liek the gambling idea as well but could we take the gambling way and mixing it with the one where u have to have so many points to get in the server... and u lose points if u loose the race and all the points gatherd went to the winner... every one puts it in the pot and the winner gets it just like real races..... that would be kinda cool but like some one said the noobs wouldn't be attracted to that but thats good and it might attract more fo real racers.....

Maybe make the gambling a spectator option where you can place bets on some drivers and then get some points if they finish like you thought...at least the idea is completely different from what I've seen about it
