Talk:The Gauntlet (Season 13)/@comment-31462314-20180117180203/@comment-27123099-20180117183652

Personally, in the more recent Gauntlets (basically anything past the first 2 or 3 seasons), I do not believe that bot slowing does much to change the difficulty. However, bot slowing is so ingrained into me that I do it virtually every race no matter what. Always beating the goal by as little as possible and slowing up/pitting bots whenever possible as well.

As far as #2, I do believe that FM has specifically stated in the rules for Gauntlets that difficulty will increase with each restart.
