I was experimenting on Le Mans - Pursuit of Victory 10.3 Elimination, stay still for 15 sec then win, on Saturday, this was my findings:

1st method. I tried start to start, as soon as the lights turned green I paused, retire, repeat after 5x auralpod was still 1st 6.4 mi, so didn't work.

2nd method. I then tried start move slightly off the line to fail, pause, retire, confirm, continue, continue and re-enter. 2nd attempt: darkness 6.2 mi, 3rd attempt MiceOrMan 6.1 mi, 4th StayFrosty 6.0mi, 5th HoodooVoodoo 5.9mi. I timed from enter to re-enter, my tablet takes 3 min to load Le Man, the total cycle from enter to enter is almost 4 min!

3rd method. I tried to wait 15 sec, move 0.1 mi, wait for the 60 seconds and retry: 6th attempt try, still displayed HoodooVoodoo 5.9mi :(, but when the race ended it was Keed07 5.8 mi :), this cycle took about 2m40s, 7th SpeedyPerkins 5.7mi.. etc.. I tried moving off the line, getting a red flag and waiting 50 sec @ 0.1 mi, 8th, 9th, still reduced, I continued with the retry method, until Eric Hertz 2.0. I lost track of how many times I repeated, it took over an hour.

Can someone try 9.3.1 on their next run, I think they were new racing drivers, one thought, are the new racing drivers fixed, so repeating or continuing doesn't work?

If you don't think it worth wasting an hour, think again, it is when it saves a 3 hour repair and you do 10.6 with a broken car!

I tried 10.6, with a broken Porsche, 1st attempt: I managed 18:11 v John Marlborough was 18:02, my fasted lap 3:20 was 3 seconds faster than John's 3:23. I had a couple of off's, with more consistency I could probably beet John.

2nd attempt: I was much more consistent, only one slight off, I nearly caught John at the beginning of lap 4, but he left me for dust down the straights, I passed him in the chicanes at the end of lap 4. 1st 18:05 v John Marlborough was 18:09 result! Fasted lap 3:18 v 3:25.

Conclusion: slowing down the bots still work in 10.3, 10.6 can be done even with a broken Porsche, upgraded with R$ upgrades only (11/24), PR93.3, steering assist high, Brakes off, TC off (on 2nd attempt), steering sensitivity 1. :D

PS I tried slowing the bots 7.3.1 (last car) today, elimination, using the start, wait for the timer to run out 20 seconds, continue, re-enter, today, it still works! When I started 7.4. the top bot was under 2 miles!
