I know there's a close finish screenshot thread, but please check out this replay and tell me who came 5th!

Ignore the wreckless bumping and grinding

You, because it says finished

lol watched replay and it was perfectly at the same time. That happens A LOT in oval racing... I think it's simply because the person at the back gets the draft while on that straight :P

I don't think so

You uploaded a bitmap, you lose at the internet.

if you have a good look he finished 5 laps behind you so you get the 5th place..

still a good screen shot tho verry close racing is always the best..

That was someone else.

Nice finish! Apparently ties are decided by who was in the server first.

You beat him by six thousandths.

I noticed that it seems like the 'transponder' is positioned at BACK of the cars. Often I've experienced I thought I'd finished, but had not because the whole car had not passed the line.
I can even park my car with front part over the Finish line - and not be registered as finished race ???
Not that it matters in this case, tho' !

On a sim who's USP is realism, that's amusing

Yes. Its simple the way its sorting algorithms work.

Its called lag
but if you said you stopped the car half way on the finish line and nothing happened, then i dont know.

ignore this

Exactly what I did. Pass the wide checkered line and stop the car when front half is passed front part of checkered line. Wait as long as you like, and then slowly progress and make the car pass complete - suddenly your registered as finished, not before.
It's like the 'thingy' that transmit the data from the car, is possitioned at the backend ?

peter collins, as it is Oval racing, I'd rather say the one on the outside won, as he had the longer way. But in a league, I'd call it a tie, calculating the points for your and his finish together (eg: you 1st he 2nd... 10pts+8pts=18pts... means 9pts for each) and giving the average points.
