How to interpret this chart


Tip1: If you plan to run the Go Karts in Race Mode, add a long straight-away, which will allow the riders to pass each other {s}. Because in Race Mode the winner will always take a victory lap, it is a good idea to adjust the number of laps so that the separation between drivers is such that the final racer arrives at the station at approximately the same time the winner completes his victory lap.

Tip2: The Operation Mode should be chosen with consideration of the track design. On tracks without tunnels, Race Mode is more Exciting than the same track in Continuous Circuit Mode. However if tunnels are added to this track, operating in Continuous Circuit Mode will see a slight increase in Excitement, but operating in Race Mode will see a significant decrease in Excitement.
