" No touching is worse but.......... "

 Interestingly, some 'light' touching seems to be ok (at least in this gauntlet).

 I was curious to find out how much of contact is acceptable, so decided to give it a shot.

 Don't remember all the race details now... but it was a cup race on Le Mans with the "no off track, no skidding, no touch" requirement. I was driving the 911 turbo and caught up with the 1st bot near the first chicane of the Mulsanne straight (to be clear: I did manage the bots actively from the very first race). I tried the following:

 1) as soon as I entered the chicane, slowed down to a halt (well, almost) and let the chasing bot touch my 911's rear... but made sure I maintained some speed (about 10mph) so that the bot did not ram into my car

 2) managed to hold the bots down in a queue for about 15 seconds.

 3) once I continued on to the next straight, PIT-maneuvered 3-4 bots (with a gentle touch of course, and no hard contact) as they tried to overtake me.

 4) decided to carry on and win the race without causing further mess :p).

 I was in some doubt till the finish line, but was happily surprised to see the 'completed' banner at the end! :)
