We removed collision from daily races. Races still use the regatta start and optional ghost boats, but those ghosts are now visual replays instead of solid blockers.
This came directly from player submissions: racers called out boats getting pushed around marks, mark zones being blocked, and top-three ghosts turning into changing obstacles as the leaderboard moved during the day.
This keeps the race cleaner, reduces frustrating contact at the start, and makes leaderboard runs feel more predictable.
