8.3 brake issues were strange. Someone said there is a bug that causes full braking when you lift off the throttle in tilt B. That did happen to me in the Porsche, but the brake indicator also dropped when I lifted, so I was "paying" for my braking. In the second lap I got down to near zero brakes, and it wasn't regenerating on straights. After it got to 1%, maybe around the beginning of lap three (still only lifting long in advance, not actually braking) it did start to regenerate the braking reservoir. The handling under "lift" braking was also very twitchy, and I went off at the end of the Mulsanne 2x and once elsewhere, but the bots never really made an effort. I have put a few gold upgrades (sorry dunno how much, I'm still drunk on NA299's glitch gold), so my car is fast. Every time I went off I thought for sure I'd be passed, but they stayed behind 700yds consistently; even when I was stopped completely in the gravel. I have been stopping close to the start line to get close to the goals every lap, so maybe that kept weak bots. I was also offline for 8.3.

8.4 I kept a 3/4 updated Bentley in low brakes, high steering, traction on, tilt B, and because the Bentley is such a fat sloppy slithery turd I was able to get all my skidding done by just cranking the wheel slightly agressively in the curves. I had my 10 by the end of the Mulsanne.
