I think Xrxsrhmn has a point there. Other than preserving service condition, a force-quit also preserves your 'past performance'...... that is, if you managed bots during the preceding races, force-quitting carries forward your performance data to the races that follow.

Here is an example -

1) After passing 7.2, I cloud-saved and paid 35 GC to pass 7.3, just to check how hard 7.4 was.

2) When I started racing 7.4, I was in the lead in less than 30 seconds into the race... with barely any effort.

3) I force-closed the game and restored my cloud save. Then I raced 7.3 normally and passed it after several tries (at PR 107.4, it was a hard race!)

4) Since the rewards were decent (especially the fame points), I chose NOT to force-quit - accepted the rewards and put the car up for service.

5) Once the car was serviced, started racing 7.4... only to find that this time Michael was way too fast!! In my 5th attempt, I could catch up with him but only by the end of 2nd lap.

This was a lesson learnt the hard way. Till 7.2, I had force-quit most races where I did not have a clear performance advantage (that is, in those races where bots could not be managed). Made an exception for 7.3 and, well... things changed dramatically. :)
