Perhaps the solution is captured in the spreadsheet. I doubt it though. You capture all kind of parameters in the driver profiles, but leave out the most essential one. It is a racing game, isn't it? Maybe you should consider Speed to be an issue. Since the game uses TSM and a variety of bots not even the number of wins, or winning percentage is very important to determine driver skills. The better you are the tougher your opponents are. However, there is a multitude of Time Trials in the career that makes it easy to grade a driver's ability to drive fast. Fast drivers are Elite drivers. At least in my book. Maybe also in Firemonkey's book? Give it a thought, at least.

That doesn't hold. I have completed the same amount of tie trials with exactly the same times in both of my devices. How can tht be? Easy; I transfer my progress between devices using backups. So how can your theory explain that I got elite status on the iphone and not on the ipad? And that when I downloaded the backup from the ipad mini into the iphone the Elite status disappeared from the iphone? And that this happened not once but twice?

I insist on my theory: This is either random or it is not random but it is not working as FM wanted it to work (i.e. yet another glitch caused by poor programming and insufficient testing).

An FM remains silent on my ticket. Three reminders sent already.
