No way I could do it without going for hours and hours. Zoe does a 3:54 when I quit right away, yet when I do a 3:36 she does a 3:32. Eventually (Years from now maybe) I will upgrade the GT1 and I doubt 2 more engine upgrades closes the 4 seconds I needed. I mention that on the Event page. The time that you see with the immediate quit is a baseline, but running the full race is always faster.

What you need to do is look at the Delta between quits to see if she, and the rest of the bots, is getting slower.

There is probably some formula that is used to calculate bot race time that has a variable that is over-represented when the DNF is at the beginning of the race that causes a slower posted time with a DNF than with a complete race. The DNF time for Zoé before I ran the full race was ~4:12. For the race she had a 3:47, but that was more than slow enough for me to catch her, as my fast laps were in the > 1:10 range.
