This bonus features challenge included the solution from the discussion onto which I wasn't able to solve on my own based on my paradigm. The extras I have added into my work is the finishing line for the winner and displaying the text using TMPro.

Originally, my idea of the flow does not consist of using boolean as the switch on/off for the camera switcher. I had thought of clicking one key (eg: 'C') to receive input from player to switch the POV by allocating different offsets to indicate the player's view to be inside the car. However, the flaw was I was unable to switch back to the original camera position without using boolean.

This idea was helped A LOT by AI (I'm terribly sorry to myself especially). My idea was there, but I just don't know the exact documentation that could help me solve the connection between TMPro and Box Colliders. Turns out, the helpful OnTriggerEnter() onto my rescue. Here is what I learnt:

- Must export TextMeshProUGUI in the script.

- Use GameObject from the MonoBehaviour class to enable the status of the text to true or false (in a sense, like a Boolean).

- Using tag and label the player in the Inspector to easily use CompareTag from Transform library.

- Stop overwriting the status of the actual winner of the race by using boolean status. If no use boolean, then when a player has won the game but the other player relentlessly make their way to touch the finishing line, the text will also appear on the losing side too.

I was trying to make sure the losing text also appear on the losing side using a listener event, but to no avail I didn't make it work. I don't want to rely AI for this one, so I might come back to solve this one once I get more familiar with the library by learning the next tutorials. Until then.
