Pitspeeding & Free Pit

[[TC]»Pete«]

Both ideas have been suggested in the past and both were dismissed due to the following reasons:

Fining for speeding in the pitlane

- 9 times out of 10 people speed in the pitlane by accident, they know they'll get spectated if they speed which is annoying enough as it is.
- Since there is a chance you might lose your entire trip by speeding in the pitlane, losing cash as well is just going to be annoying.

Remove "free pit" and charge €100

- We introduced the 5 minute cool down to dissuade people from using shift+p and ignoring this costs €500. This generally means that people have to be careful when leaving the pits else they know they have to wait 5 minutes before they can shift+p. If people survive the first 5 minutes without ruining their car, it's likely they'll last for at least a little while.
- We feel that the system we have in place already is a better compromise than fining for pitting even if someone's lasted 3 hours without needing it, then ends up out of bounds somewhere, unable to move. They then have no choice but to pit and lose money and their large trip. It's unnecessary since they already lost the thing they'd been working on for that time.

I hope this is an adequate response as to why we're unlikely to implement any such changes in the foreseeable future.
