Countdown Mode

Inspired by the Countdown mode made by Mr. Bean 35000VR, this mode has players race against the clock to complete as many laps as possible before time runs out.

Current version: Kart V3.1

Commands:

CountWelcome - Gives a welcome command.
CountHelp - Gives a list of commands and (nearly all) netvars which can be changed.
CountSettings - Shows the current settings, and the time bonuses for each enabled setting.
