The only place I found difficult was Richmond. Daytona and Indy were easy, even when Difficulty was set to Extreme; they are all about knowing the racing line and staying in the draft and once you have that down, the bots slow enough in the corners to make those races easy wins. The bots are pretty useless on road courses, so long as you don't get caught up in traffic and have a rabbit at the lead of the pack.

I don't use assists for road circuits but had been for the ovals... What I realized in completing the Richard Petty series is that FM changed something so that the only way to win at Richmond was to run it without assists. The assists slowed the car too much so you could not get a run on the lead cars. In order to balance out not having assists on, I turned the sensitivity of the controller down to 3 or so, and that was pretty much the formula for Tilt B.
