Thank you for the video Amsora - I used the word "blocking" but I much prefer "defensive driving"

Ghosting all the cars utterly eliminates all defensive driving techniques. I've used them often. I've had guys who were marginally faster get on my butt - but I kept them from passing NOT by ramming them or crashing them or brake checking (I don't play that way) - Instead, I watched my line and where they were in the mirror and I made sure it was too hard for them to pass. You know, I raced against my opponent.

Ghosting the cars <> multiplayer. This is nothing more than running time trials with 1-7 ghosts and you don't always start at the pole position but you may run more than 1 lap.

I VERY VERY much welcome their claims to have fixed stat hacks - that's been my only issue with OMP and, as I'm SURE you know lol, I've been quite vocal about it. Crashing/ramming is just something you have to learn to deal with and work around. I've become quite good at new tactics I employ to work around these kinds of racers and win often, finding myself regularly in the top 25. HOWEVER, I just can't beat a guy that goes 300 mph and brakes in 1 foot. Equalize us there and I feel I could be top 10 often. BUT if it's just time trials then, sadly, I'll fall far behind (based on how I can only barely make A's in todays time trials)

Thanks again for the video - I hope others get how bad this is to lose the one thing that made this truly multiplayer - interaction with other racers.
