Endurances are a unique case as the bot distances are fixed regardless of the race. I seem to recall people not being able to beat the bot distances with the C10 or similar.

That being said, there are clear cases where the goal needs to be done with some sort of trick. The F14T ES hunter at Indy speedway is an obvious example given everyone has the same car and the entire race is flat out.

Even if you get Speed Junkie as a TSM in a LM 10-lapper, his bot will still be in the ~28 min range, since that is the best FM can model. So you can be running fast in cups, or other events directly against a bot and it's a non-issue. Amrosa's point is that for the events where the monkeys use the actual distance/time, it is annoying to have goals that can't be reached cleanly and, frankly, the monkeys do a terrible job (i.e. they do nothing) to account for the tail in these distributions created by people doing things like pushing the silvia backwards or flying off the track for a speed record, or even just setting a good distance in an enduro.

All that being said, the monkeys will do nothing. They certainly didn't do anything about previous Panorama enduro distances with the bot change this update. Now that created some hardship!
