Its broken beyond repair!

Some of what you are experiencing is due to internet lag; when a car goes from 200 to 0 to 200 to 0 (surging back and forth)... that's lag. If some jerk nails the brakes RIGHT when you are behind him, it's the jerk! A wrecked back-end does almost nothing to him, but your wrecked front end will drastically slow you down!

As far as tricks, there's only one simple one that I know of. It decreases the chance of some jerk hitting you and turns it into more of a time trial. You need to be running Tilt A. When the race starts, minimize the game for 2 full seconds. Go back into the game and do it again. Do this 3 or 4 times and the cars will be WAY ahead of you. However, this "lost time" is credited back to you at the finish line. So you can finish 5 seconds back of someone, but get an 8 second credit if you did the routine 4 times.

If you do 3+ seconds it will kick you out of the race.

Tilt A matters as your car moves a bit during this process. Tilt B creates to much lost time. You can switch to Tilt B while racing, but it's hard! Pausing in OMP just makes it so you can barely see while you are racing. Still, it's possible.

This trick used to make your car go transparent so that nobody could hit you, I preferred that. Then you just raced each other man to man and it was about who did the best job around the track. I raced some of the top 10 racers and some were VERY good. Just good, no-assist real racing. Some were hacks as their car never re-appeared, but they beat me by a huge margin. When I started having this happen often, I quit OMP.

If you start catching up on some stragglers hanging back to smash you, you can just do the routine again.

It's an event for hackers to collect gold each week... which doesn't even make sense. They probably hacked for unlimited currency in the first place. So why do they need more gold??? They want to FEEL like a winner while being a complete loser!
