Another idea... Track Statistics - reece146 - 11-07-2006

I'm finding that it would be nice to have a record of the fastest lap time per car saved in the track data between vdrift sessions.

Say I can do the 'Ring in about 10:45 in the XS, it would be nice to have that to shoot for as a target when I'm driving the XS - even when starting out from a standing start. If another car can do it faster (say CO at 9:25) then that should be displayed as well.

Something like the existing timer, current lap time, best lap time (ever, with car noted), best lap time with this car.

Make it a plain text file to keep the coding simple OR have an interface to cnnect to a database somewhere (local or network).

Maybe there is a better mechanism to centralize stats?

Just an idea. Smile

This is definitely something we'd like to do but it is totally pending on Player Profiles. I'd like to see all this data stored associated with a given Player, so that you can then look at a given player's statistics. Other things I'd like to keep track of is max and minimum speed, and some other stuff...

Another way-out idea...

Link local copies of vdrift to this web site via LDAP auth or similar mechanism so that your track stats/career is on this site as well.

I got a million ideas. Never said any would be practical though. Wink

That's an idea I've toyed with too, but I'm thinking I might make it a separate site. Not sure yet, but it might make sense.
