I’ve driven as fast as possible in every event so as to be matched with the fastest bots available. I came to the Tier 18.2 Elimination and was quite gratified by the results! To my surprise the lead bot was decently fast through the corners.....Auralpod. I’d like to point out that an Elimination race feels like what starting 8th in a Cup should feel like. Looking at it that way I think Elimination events might be my favorite race setup. Anyway, the point is this....that after running the 18.2 Elimination it’s plain to see the bots(Auralpod as an example)can be tuned to be fast in the corners. Such as it is if you make a big mistake you might likely lose! Wonderful!

Matter of fact I lost on one attempt after skidding and Auralpod was gone. I reran it a few times staying on his bumper, with some effort I might add, to further observe his speed. I found the largest advantage was shown through the bus stop, but otherwise quite competitive in the other turns. Again, it was wonderful! After winning, sadly I couldn’t get Auralpod and the others to come back out to play. Restart, quit, continue-nothing!😝 The replacement bots-big disappointment, not competitive, too slow-our biggest gripe.

Once again: starting further up in the field, being matched with faster bots, the possibility of not winning-Presto Digitalis! We got a race. So now all we gotta do is to be able to call up the fastest bots(and the ones we make even faster)somehow set a reasonable start position, calculate the proper amount of race time(add laps)and then go racing. Maybe it’s too much to ask - but you gotta ask. Go into off-line mode. Run the drag races 2 or 3 times against the BOTS in the series you desire. It's all I have to do to flush out my top 3 BOTs if they get lazy. Just sayin
