I just think that teleport to pits is not realistic and will totally ruin a race for sure. I don't know if there is a way of split this false start in a time interval. If you start as soon as the game lets you and you gain 2 or 3 seconds, the drivethrough can be enough or not, depending on track. But if you start half of a second before you will also ruin your race, having to make a drivethroug in the first laps. But loosing some positions is very different from starting from the pits... and even worst if you get controls locked for 17 seconds, like Ilmari Ylitalo says. If I ever get that, I will start from pits, complete the 2 laps that I have to complete to avoid ranking penalisation and will leave the race.
A drivethrough or even stoping in the pits would at least leave you in the middle of other cars, unless you were already in the back of the grid.
The perfect solution would be to not allow a false start until 1 second before light go out or a hybrid solution of penalisation which would be worst if you false start a lot earlier and not so bad when you false start just for a few miliseconds.
I understand when you say that this will stop those idiots from jump start and hit other cars. But there are also protests and bans for those idiots! I never saw that in the few races I made in SRS. Maybe in public servers this is common...
For me, it would be more realistic and more competitive to have drivethrough. And those few tracks where that could be an advantage, could have stop in pits or teleport to pits. How many tracks do you know where a drivethrough is actually faster than keeping in the track? I don't think there is one.
And probably when you see people going ahed and make the drivethrough and still be in front is because they gain advantage in those 2 or 3 laps before making the drivethrouhg. I find it hard that a driver from the back of the grid (which should be slower than the ones in the front...) could still be in front of a faster driver after drivethrough on most of the tracks.
But this is the rule and we race with the rules that are written. I haven't false start, and unitl now I just have to benefited from it. Yesterday, I saw at least 2 other drives disappearing from the grid in Branchs Hatch with the Porsche Cup. 2 places won before start! But, if it was with me, I would quit race.
