New Realistic Speed Limits.

I go on the server to drive pretty quickly, and the fun for me is driving to the limit within the bounds of the track/barriers. The reason I don't just go onto a race server to drive quickly is because I like the tricky parts of the layouts, and having to account for other drivers.

If the limits were reduced, that would take the fun out of it for me, at least, as the negative cash values would quickly erase the cash. As for "reducing the amount you lose when you speed", that will make the speed limit a totally arbitrary value. If the losses are reduced, people will still drive at the speed they are now. The only difference will be that now everyone is doing ~300% of the speedlimit, as opposed to ~150%.

Addition: I think any act to lower the speed of cars should be done in a more discreet and indirect way, for example the servicing feature and the useful life of the car. That way it adds realism to the game, but doesn't directly charge people more for "having fun".
An insurance system which could be built around this ethos would be good (if developed correctly), but thinking about it now, it would probably be very complex to create, and to perfect the parameters.
