Wait until you find out about Duesenberg. They made 400hp supercharged straight 8 monsters that cost more than a doctors annual salary back in the 20's and 30's. They were much faster than even race cars of the era. IMO the first relative "hypercars" if you compare what else was available.

Failing a roll is on you whether you like it or not. The ever looming threat of failure is important in story telling and suspension of disbelief. It's the opposite of dumb game design. So yeah you either reload until everything gets handed to you or you move on. You're talking like he's locked behind a dlc when you're just pissed a dice roll didn't go your way at level one.

Is it for the entire country? Because if so that seems very low.

...Just says there's a transponder that's supposed to judge if there was movement. It says nothing about how said transponder achieves that judgement. It doesn't simply senses movement as you astutely pointed out the car very obviously moved. That means it needs a reference point.

So Is it gps? Is it an accelerometer? Is there another sensor on the grid it has to cross? Is it telemetry? Why is there this much wiggle room?

I would honestly be interested about where you got that the transponder is based on movement vs position. And I don't say that to catch you in a lie at all I am thoroughly honestly interested in this and would like to learn more about this tech.

edit: and yes from the in-board cam it does look like at least the contact patch was in-front you are right.
