Vehicle config/tuning is still accessible. Anyway, I'd love to see a way to complete drag races in quick succession. I don't know why staging takes longer in 0.24, but it's another slight time-add that annoys me. Resetting after a pass for an other race was reasonably quick because there was no mission-end screen, and staging a car took less time as well.

I was hoping this feature would be good for tuning, but if it's not showing me my ET, there's really no point to using it for tuning.Ī 'tuning mode' would be nice: In all honesty, I like 0.23 a lot better for drag racing. Solo runs: I was very pleased to see it possible to make a pass without an opponent via practice mode! This is great for people with underpowered PC's because only having one vehicle loaded in the world means better FPS and more accurately measured race times.but while racing solo in practice mode, it doesn't actually display you ET or trap speed at the end of the run. Not to mention you're actually spending more time in menus than on the strip. 15 seconds doesn't sound like much, but it adds up to tens of minutes very quickly. Now imagine having to wait ~15 seconds for a post-mission loading screen in between each pass.

It's a tedious process, and your bound to make well over a hundred passes by the time you've shaved every last thousandth of a second off your ET. You make one small adjustment to engine tuning, suspension stiffness, gearing, tire pressure, etc, and then take another run down the strip to see if that change is helping or hurting your performance. It's a mission: Fine tuning a drag car takes time, and lots of test passes. Going to rant a little bit here so bear with me, but TL:DR, I think they've made a few positive changes to drag racing, but overall I'm very displeased with the new changes.
