Why don't road courses integrate banked corners for higher speeds?
>>14718495
why don't roads have boost strips like Mario kart?
>>14718495
Why isn't gasoline free?
>but roads have banked corners
OP, do you even drive?
They do though.
>>14718499
>tfw electric race cars this can be a reality
>>14718511
Actually it is free.
>>14718549
why isn't freedom free?

If we don't chip in our $1.05, who will?
>>14718495
Because braking and changes of speed mean RACING. Not just turning left turning left turning left.
>>14718527
Some do. Do you not drive? Have you never seen a banked curve on the road?
>>14718495
because the purpose of a road course is challenge

The old AVUS did way back in the day, but it proved to be a bit of a deathrap because if you swung wide you'd fly over the top. By the end of its lifetime most races omitted the banked curve.

>you will never see a f1 or lmp car take flight at over 300km/h and decapiate a crowd over a banked corner

Formula 1 had a boost button a few years back that you could only activate in certain zones which is kinda close, I dunno if they still have it.
Formula E has a "Fan boost" where you get more boost the more people tweeted about you or some shit.
We're not at boost pads but we're closer than you'd think.

This single handedly made me hate Formula E. How the fuck does that have anything to do with racing?
>>14720941

Are you FUCKING ME RIGHT NOW?

It is true actually, but I think it is a poll on ifficial website on somting

Mother of god I had to look it up.
I'm going to die. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK, THIS IS WHY FORMULA SUCKS.
>>14722515
Formula E is entertaining
stop trying so hard
>>14722515
>i dont watch racing the post
Btw, formula e has some really amazing battles every round. Cars may have no sound but the racing is very good.
>>14722529
I watched one, the guy who won only did so because he used fan boost on the straight. It was fucking trash.
>>14720993
Sucks to be that guy.
>>14718495
some of the older ones do
but just to go around hills other wise its just faster to go in a strait line
>>14720975
get into some off camber banking and get back to me on that one
>>14720941
They still have drs which follows the same principles. Opens up the rear wing for a momentary increase in top speed.
>>14722529
Its gay as shit. The driver has to change cars halfway through the the race because fia won't admit battery tech is still garbage. Also its gay as fuck that fe races in miami but f1 doesnt. I dont wanna buy tickets to watch overpowered razor go carts race downtown.

kek theres no way thats real, 4chan would have twitter bombed someone with sonic gotta go fast pics right as they were going into a corner
>>14720941
f1 has drs nowadays, accomplishes basically the same thing. indycar runs push to pass on roadcourses these days too. p2p used to annoy the shit out of me back before it was changed so that nobody except the team and driver knew how many you had left.
>>14723258
It isn't tweets, it's a voting thing you do before the race.

As has been noted they have banked curves but with a much less aggressive angle to them.

>all those former f1 drivers
is Formula E where half-realised racing careers go to die?
