Re: Help with sensing
I know the problem! (I think) Some of the cars glide past the finish line to their spot, then when they reach their spot, the cars stop because they are touching the finish line. I suggest making a different speed variable for each of the cars, then have for each of the cars(sorry I don't know how to use scratchblocks quickly) When I recieve race, forever, set speed (car #) to pick random 1-8, then have a repeat block maybe 10 times, and inside of that, have if not touching finish line, else. Under if, have change x by speed (car #), under else, have stop script. Do that for each car, and you should be good! 
Thanks FreshStudios!Offline

Everything is better when you add a little cheddar, because when you have cheese your life is at ease
