    i've got another quirky one. obviously not high priority as there are a ton of MP related things to sort out first:
    i propose the option to assign car classes in MP to be AI or player exclusive.

    the reasoning behind this is that multi-class races with a big field are very immersive and add a lot of realism and atmosphere. on the other hand it's not ideal to have AI in a multiplayer race, because racing the AI needs a different approach and mindset than racing players (that would only change if AI became really "intelligent").

    with ai exclusive classes, you could for example have a few AI cars in lower and higher classes filling up the grid for the immersion without worrying too much about AI aggresion and pace and the chance for the AI to ruin a players race.

    example lobby could look sth. like that:
    grid size 28.
    max human players: 18 (+10 AI)
    AI exclusiv classes: Gt4, P2 (5 cars each)
    Human exclusiv classes: GT3, GTE

    I'd still like to see my PB for car/track combos, (for any session, not just Time Trial). I see the world record, but nothing for me. Boo Hoo.

    imsa GTO or similar 80s high power GT cars would be nice. i'm hoping for them to arrive with the next USA DLCs...

    While just checking the requests (even after a year) just noticed most of them is not even considered by the dev team. I dont say they dont listen but; definitely not even on the priority list for now. However there are some ground breaking suggestions which in the same time seems not a lot work :(

    on the other hand, it might be even better to "complete" the classes we already have before adding more classes with few cars. 80s GT would at least fit with "group c" for some nice vintage multi-class fields, so it has that going for it, i guess...

    In Brazilian series these would be crosses, but same feature.

    A simple one: Start testing things before release. If a feature/car/track just works "somehow" instead of "properly", do not release it in order to avoid to have even more bugs as there are already in game.

    Would be great to see driving aids used by players, too.

    Option to add your driver weight to the vehicle. What would the Consequences be (positives & negatives) for League races, and AI races?

    @Sean Smith

    I think (I could definitely be wrong) each car has 85kg driver weight added to it as is. So having a driver weight available would only really be a change of +/- 30kg which I'm guessing would only make a meaningful difference to the karts no?

    So I've just bought the game almost a week ago and I can't agree with this enough. The custom championship is showing potential but I feel it would massively benefit from allowing us to name our AI drivers, and assign them specific cars and liveries. This is the biggest feature request I have with the game in it's current state

    I think people may not be honest about their weight.

    Allow positive camber on the open-wheelers, in preparation for the ovals that are coming. I don't want to be limited to using the new cars that will be released for them.

    On the topic of ovals, I hope we get a good short track oval and some grassroots level car classes. Street stock was one of my all time favorite classes in iRacing, and I hope we get something in that vein along with the other content.

    Totally in agreement.
    I’m doing an endurance championship with DPI and GT3, and would be great to choose the number of cars per class and to have points awarded per class as well
