Author: auria For future reference, I have already solved part of this task when debugging armatures :
irr_driver->getVideoDriver()->setTransform(video::ETS_WORLD, core::IdentityMatrix);
core::vector2di textpos = irr_driver->getSceneManager()->getSceneCollisionManager()->getScreenCoordinatesFrom3DPosition(jointpos);
Author: hikerstk Quick comment: that would mean that the names are displayed using a 2d display on screen. The other option of course is to add a billboard to the karts. Not sure which one would look better. Billboard would automatically become smaller if the kart is further away.
Author: hikerstk Postponed since not essential for 0.7.3.

This should also be used to indicate who is the leader in a FTL race, and perhaps also team colors in case of team races (in the future).
