However, the 2 biggest issues I've run into are the following.

1. - I am virtually always in the back row or two at the start. I've played probably 100 races under the new system and I can count on one hand how many times I've been in the front row or two. There doesn't seem to be an equalizing factor here to equate for the difference in start positions, so I'm sure I'm losing some time because of it. Now that we're all ghosts, why not just start everyone at the front?? Would look odd, but no reason it couldn't be done.

2. - Whenever I'm ahead of another player by a small margin (roughly 15yds or less), I will always, ALWAYS, finish that player when the times are tallied. I've never once had this go in my favor. Additionally, whenever I'm the following car and I finish within that same distance, I never get the benefit either. So, it screws me both ways. It's likely due to some lag, but it's frustrating as heck for sure.

Me too!! 1. Position is by ranking points. If you are at the back you are the highest ranked player. The worst ranked player is at pole position. I don’t like this. Shouldn’t the best racer get pole position ? Oh yes, the SJWs wanna let every little Johnny feel special too, even one with a 200 rating.

2. Every. Single. Time. I call BS on this behavior. If I finish a race and it clearly says #1 on the screen and has read #1 since the first corner and the distance to the car behind me is +5 yard then I’ve won that race. Period. I’m betting this is a side effect of the ghosting. It hard enough winning a neck and neck race only to lose.
