    I would like to have signs where pit lane speed limit starts and ends, i.e. a sign with the limited speed on it.
    Also pit in / exit lights are missing, I think almost at every track.
    At some pit in / exit roads there are so many markings I never know which is the line for speed limit

    an in-game distant sharpening setting instead of changing the xml files and trial and error. A clear explanation what these last entries in the graphicsoculussettings.xml actually do would help as well.

    It would be nice if we have drafting for normal cars, and reduced downforce for the formula cars if close to the guy in front of you.

    Can we get split times, deltas? Maybe a list of lap times for each lap? Export to spreadsheet? Anything like that so we can have full official results in some format for records or even for league race record keeping?

    it would be nice if the exhausts of the cars would be red as in reality, once they are heated.

    I saw something in a video I watched about the ACC release of Imola that is a nice little touch. They included the flags and the Senna statue after what is now the first chicane. I looked for the flags in AMS2 and didn't see them. That seems like a nice little touch that wouldn't hurt performance much.

    Changing background music to a more thrilling one like in pc2 would be a little yet very elegant touch.
    And having stadium sounds within race or any music would be awesome too..

    I wish a manual transition zone in the rolling-start process. It sometimes happens now that I am in a place where it is impossible to keep the car under control if the steering becomes manual again after the lights go green
    EDIT: workaround is enabling the formation-lap

    Damage in time trial mode is just so annoying and meaningless. Always need to restart after a crash instead continuing and getting a good start for next run.
    Moral of the story;
    DISABLE DAMAGE IN TT MODE!

    Please when exiting a online race lobby do not throw to main menu instead in multiplayer lobby with refreshing the list. Every time clicking the multiplayer menu...

    At the end of a session or race starting lights should switch to red.
    I think in real life it is this way to mark that session is over.

    Just to streamline my thoughts about the UI: accessing the driving assists should be more intuitive. At the moment, the options are too confusing and tricky to use when driving.

    1. The difference between "Authentic" driving aids and "gaming" aids is not clearly explained. Some people are confusing the two; ipso facto, the controls need better explanation.
    2. Ditto for the difference between Low, Medium and High Traction Control, and 0%-100% Traction Control.
    3. The Authentic Traction Control scale (100% slip to 0% slip - or is it vice versa?) is confusing users. It may well be how some real race cars operate, but it is counter-intuitive and needs clearer instructions or reworking.
    4. The ICM Menu inserts a time-consuming UI layer between driver and TC/ABS. Instead, these controls should be immediately obvious and accessible.
    Reiza is working on the UI and many other aspects of AMS2, so this isn't necessarily a feature request but more of an observation. :)

    Can you imagine driving the walls and bumping the rails on Monaco setting a fast lap?
    There are other spots on other tracks where normally you would damage your car, but can gain time with disabled damage.
    Racing isn't driving a Rollercoaster.
    It also adds extra tension, finishing your lap without damage.
    If damage is disabled you would force other people to drive the same "unrealistic" way.
    You are free to disable damage in a "test day" session learning the track and keep hold of your times,
    Then, if you learned the track, try to set a time in Time-Trial mode.

    (You have a nice colorful Signature :))
