Yes, that a good mode as real drivers do testing during the off season to not to learn how to drive but test things out get to know the track and how the car responds with out traffic. This mode would be called more like testing. Nest mode is to learn to move around a certain track with traffic, its help to see how your car handles with other cars during drafting and see if any adjustments needed to the car to say save gas or tire wear. This mode is normally called fast laps.
Once you feel you got your car right for a race its time to see if your and the car is good enough to qualify and what position you deserve. This could be done different ways and should be an option in the game. Daytona has a complete differnt way to qualify for a race, besides the time trails they group the line up SNp or Standard National Points. This race alow many different racers in to the race as long as they can qualify, from Nascar drivers to sprint drivers. The lineup does not have to follow down the line where the fastest is first and the slowest is last. Main events lineup can be finalized by having Heat races and this allows a more competitive racing in the feature race. So, going this route, would have you needing not only race in a heat race or two of them, you need to place well enough and to survive to get in the feature. I admit that do want it takes to make the game a game where made only two players can play head to head would make this a premere accessbile. I would also request to have the game opened ended as Top Speed to allow add ons like able to add Classic Nascar cars, sprints and trucks. Later a tool can be added to include a track builder for those may want to have differnt road courses, short tracks, and why not if one wants a lot of wrecks a figure 8. AS a fan of Clay racing I then also could build a track of clay with sprints or late modles or even Six bangers. I know there is interest in this type of racing and if your going to have Nascar cars racing in the rain, and icy track then your not to far from racing on Clay. If the weather conditions change for Nascar so does the surface of a clay track, in fact it always changes. And when the time comes I am willing to anser questions on certain aspects of racing on clay. Charles can give you knowledge about open wheel racing on clay. Raceway not only be a revenue getting game off the assembly line but can bring in more cash for years to come with add ons. Why? There is so much love for racing and passion for the sport that when add ons are avilable those who truly love racing will want to get as much racing run as possible. What ever the learning curve there may be in the game at first can be hadled with modes like many other games The Raceway game certain help in ear and hand control, but as you are trying to do is a wonderful thing to bring a feeling of what its like to behind a race car. Smiles better put on the brakes, you know me I like to give my feedback and this email is getting to be as long as the Nascar Rules Handbook. But its been some time, to express myself on what the guys would like to see in RaceWay that are passionate about the sport.
