By the same logic, if we added horse races you'd still be able to ride your horse out in the world, so horse riding will always be there.
The point of my argument, as I'm sure you will reverse on me after I said the above, was that in a tour like a 1v1 reg there's a prize on the line and that's why it might be considered unfair for those with lag, they'll never be able to be on par with those with less lag.
In any case, we have a new server now, with a new connection, and we can always try it and see how players like it. If too many complain of lag then it can stop being hosted.
You can also add lots of obstacles that send you backwards 10-20 tiles, or however much, to make it more of a course where you have to take your time to navigate instead of just running in a straight line for 30 seconds where lag would make more of a difference.
Would you like the suggestion more if I called it an obstacle course instead of a race?
