I try to keep the second place car between 50 and 100 yards behind me and slow at the line so they are within 5-35 yards behind at the line. Sometimes, though I race and forget I'm leaving them far behind, so I will wait for them, NOT at the line (any more. I lost a lot of races doing that). Now, I wait for them in a corner where they will slow. This makes it easier to start back up and stay ahead, or it makes it easier to correct mistakes, if they pass. If they come up behind and stop, all the better. Check the list of bots, too. If your list of competitors has the slowest bot in the list, not much bot management is needed to stay at the bottom.
