Maybe that could be a reason for slow down?

Erm, I racked up over a million in speeding fines before reset before last, and even spent 1 million combined from XRR rentals and the speeding fines. And that was before open tracks existed, and the closed circuit Montana was still up. And before this reset, I had at least 10 hours of XRR rental time, most of it used on whatever track was up at the time, all full throttle. The fact that I'd lose about 250 euros a second, as opposed to, oh say, the 50 euros if it was RB4, did nothing to deter me from going flat out.

Why? Because, it's fun to go flat out, and people like fun, don't they? For this reason, I doubt lowering the speed limit would have any noticeable effect on the way people drive. I mean the original Autobahn had no speed limit up until the open layout was opened, where the 100mph limit was put in place. (not sure on when exactly it was placed) Even with the speed limit in place, people still barreled around. In fact, if the speed limit was lowered, I foresee those who do follow the limits will end up getting reared ended more often, due to people still flying at speeds of 120mph+. It may have worked in the first week or so after the reset, but 1 month in, we already have people who have an established amount of cash, that if the speed limit changes, they can just brush it off.

Haha, do you mean the curve coming from roundabout into the infield? If so, I think that barrier's there as a "noob valve" of sorts, to make sure cars who break late and crash, don't take out cross traffic as well

Also, as a random note, can the people who dislike the new layout(s) state why they don't like them and back it up with some examples of what's wrong with the new one? I didn't exactly like the original new layout, but since there wasn't anything fundamentally wrong with the layout, I decided I could live with it, however much I was annoyed it was a closed circuit
