I've been practicing my continuous slides and spins in another series which I need to slow the bots down a bit. Still, I agree, crossing the line in reverse is the worst new condition I've seen. I also use reverse once I get to 90 degrees. Luckily, the R$ Porsche's seem easy to control with Tilt B and no assists, so I haven't really had trouble with this one (or the continuous slide ones).

Have to disagree with the challenge/boss ratio. Getting 4 banked runs before the first boss makes banking 4 non-boss runs and starting over more profitable than it used to be (because it now takes 6 runs = 12 tickets to bank 4 runs, and it used to take 7 runs = 14 tickets). It seems almost better to end a run the race after a reasonably difficult boss race by quitting before the green light (to save on servicing the non-boss car) and getting back to Boss 1 sooner, as opposed to pushing on and seeing if the next Boss is beatable or not.
