Its so much easier because it is a standing start and, if I recall correctly, the PR to run this race is lower than the PR to get to this race (or did I imagine that?). With the standing start you can catch the lead driver much earlier. However, I still pit a few of the lead drivers, race flat out and then wait for them to catch up. The bots do get much faster if you don't but never that fast. In Endurance Champions, the bots can get so fast that you don't catch them up until the second half of the race.

As for your original question, I agree it only affects Endurance Kings but I have my suspicions that there is some bleeding during special events but never been able to prove it. Sometimes I come back to my bots after a special event to find they have sped up (Endurance Champions, not Kings).
