How it fits. BakedWorld::roads is the route graph, VehicleKind::Car is the vehicle, and the event clock already handles a start countdown and a finish. The difference from the foot race is the route and the checkpoint validation: a checkpoint is a gate across the road, and the server checks the vehicle pose against it. No physics engine is needed; the existing vehicle step is enough.

Scope.

Derive a closed route from the service roads and mark it with gates.
A grid start, a countdown and lap counting.
Vehicle-only participation; everyone else spectates.
A standings board and a best-lap record.
A practice mode with no clock.

Related. #200 (records), #196 (replay), #206 (spectating), #173 (duels).

The campus has a loop of service roads, and a fleet of cars. A Grand Prix is a checkpoint race for vehicles: a route through the roads, a grid start, laps, and a standings board. It is the one use of the car that is about driving rather than commuting, and it makes the road network legible. **How it fits.** `BakedWorld::roads` is the route graph, `VehicleKind::Car` is the vehicle, and the event clock already handles a start countdown and a finish.
