Show Racing Line Assist in Time Trial
- I think it would be a good idea to have a 4th assist showing, determining which drivers use racing line and which don't in time trial.

- @FranchiseK 100% agree. I think things like that should definitely be added. Also I think it would make sense to separate ABS/No ABS or assist/no assist.
I would like to be able to filter the TT leaderboards by the assists used, or for there to be a separate no assists leaderboard. I agree that the racing line should be included as an assist. I watched a YouTube video of the top PlayStation TT time round Singapore and was disappointed to see it had the racing line on.
I dont get this one.
Esport line is faster period.
A person at the top of the boards using racing line is obviously CHEATING.
Now separating Manual and Automatic transmission users make sense cause no Auto player will EVER stand a chance of being high on the boards or winning an Online lobby for that matter.
Racing line is definitely not the fastest line.

It was the corners only line, and just because the line is on doesn't mean it's being followed. I certainly didn't mention this to accuse anyone of cheating.
- @Ultrasonic_77 Your reply is why I don't get this one.
Since said person doesn't necessarily follow the racing line why would we need some way of being able to tell who is using it?
Like I said I personally dont get it.

Like I said I personally dont get it.You'd need to ask them. I'll add that I think it's also often missed that probably the key benefit of the racing line is not specifically the line but rather the braking indication it gives.
Here's the video I mentioned for context (which looks legitimate to me, and note that I'm pretty sure it would breach forum rules to specifically call out an individual as cheating):
- @Ultrasonic_77 Im not specifically calling out anybody.
The Esport guys are at the top of the food chain and THEY say anyone faster than they are are cheating and the Esport guys DONT use racing line.
My conclusion is based simply on this. - @BadMayh3m Watched the Vid after posting and now I see the problem.
Connor's time would only place him 60th on the Xbox 8 tenths slower than Elite's WR.
Connor's name is also the only name Ive heard of from Esports in that top 10 list.

Connor's name is also the only name Ive heard of from Esports in that top 10 list.I did say from the start that I was referring to the PlayStation leaderboard 🙂. I wouldn't expect the times to be as fast as the PC eSports drivers although I am surprised how big the difference is to XBOX. Are the XBOX top times also set with the equal performance car?
If you watch NSX_Conor's video you'll see they don't follow the path of the racing line but presumably must feel there is benefit from either the braking indicator or in some other way. If there wasn't it would be weird to have it on as the game looks so much better without! Don't get me wrong, NSX_Conor is clearly a very fast driver, and there's no way I'd suddenly be able to match their time if I switched the racing line on! In the context of the suggestion that started this thread, it is notable though to see that what from the leaderboard appears to be a no-assist time was actually made using an assist, and so an indication of this doesn't seem crazy to me.
