Re: Why the hell
Nevermind the fact that players with x2 Speedpoint bonuses get their score doubled (when in reality the doubled score shouldn't show up on the leaderboards because it's unfair to other players who always win all the events).

When you're in need to park , don't park in the middle of the road or long straights , just find some tight corner or tidy place so noone could get enough speed to takedown you or move from others while you're changing things
Also , "meeting point" is takedown free ,as long you're in correct car for next race and you're within "meting point" limits> green circle on the map , but beware , right before race starts > the moment mission objectives are displayed > takedown immunity goes off .
+++ choose competitive cars , because light , fragile cars like BAC , caterham ... Don't stand a chance against heavy cars (unless they're fully heavy chasis,body moded ) so I usually avoid them in mixed (free for all classes) races :D
Yeah, but if you like playing with a controller, stupid people crash into you whilst you're waiting and the controller vibrates repeatedly which gets VERY ANNOYING; as a resolution to this, possibly turn off vibration when at the meet up, or cause player controls to freeze so people can't crash into each other until the race starts.
"as long you're in correct car for next race"
That's the problem though mate, what if you want to change to the correct car?
Parking out of the way is impossible, some ass still hunts you down, plus you're hurting your race chances. What about if you're tucked around the corner and the race starts. Everyone else gets a 10 to 20 second head start on you and you'll come mid-table at best.
Plus. I've been taken down in the green circle, in the correct car. If someone or a group of people hit you just right you can be tipped or even pushed out of the circle. Which is great if I'm customising my licence plate for example!

I get it , all those things are annoying to me also > my takedown ratio is negative ☹️ and i'm having real fun time when i'm being takedown-ed few times in a row arround meeting zone :D> but game design is as it is and i just give example how to easier deal with it
I'm 100% for a total crash immunnity in meeting point (why is not so I don't know? ) or just make meeting zone bigger , but with other real (not design) problems , I don't think they'll spend any money/time in changing rules ( public races only lobby , takedowns mishmash , hell , they could put cat'n mouse mode easily , or game could generate unique races every time ... ) > I wish they would
I know mate, and I appreciate the suggestion 🙂 just got bitten several times trying to keep out of the way or stay perfectly in the green circle.
It'd be nice to be immune to being hit when using easy drive, but remove the ability to accelerate or something. It's not like you can effectively use it mid race anyway, as you'll either get rear-ended or hit something.
I've also been taken down by traffic that someone else has nudged, but not crashed in to. The traffic car somehow sped up to the speed of sound and took me down. Awesome.
