Sometimes (through sheer coincidence) I find a particular AI-track-car combination doesn't go along too well. Most of the time, they overspeed and create spectacular accidents. Sometimes, they seem like they don't have enough wheel lock to get through a corner (this happens a LOT with muscle cars in New York and Paris).
Recently though, I've been trying to try and stop the AI from completing the race by presenting them with an insurmountable barrier. Since the Benz Wagon isn't in GTPSP, I found the next slowest car to be Citroen 2CV (I find it ironic that Citroen also makes one of the fastest cars in the game). So I headed to the 'Ring for a 1 lap race (took me close to 17 minutes or so
), and much to my dismay, they manage to complete a lap despite the steep hills. So I searched for another track with steep hills, which brought me to Citta di Aria. 1 lap forward race it is then...Nope, still doesn't work. So I tried reverse and guess what? I succeeded! Well, sort of. The steep hill after the long backstraight is killer for those AIs. Of course we instinctively shift down to maintain revs, but the AI doesn't, so they spent about 30 seconds stationary in 2nd gear wondering what to do . Eventually they got moving again though, so my plan is foiled 
.
Anyway, with so many tracks and cars, there's bound to be combinations that produce interesting drives by the AI. This is the thread to post them, so we can all have some share of the hilarity. Try to post them in the following format: Track/Direction/Rank/Car/Tire/Comments
Here are some of my mine:
Nurburgring/Forward/S/TVR Speed 12/R3/Carnage at last chicane
Suzuka West/Forward/S/F2007/R3/First corner trip to the gravel at almost every lap
Citta di Aria/Reverse/D/Citroen 2CV/N1/See above
Chamonix or Ice Arena/Forward or Reverse/S/Dodge Viper/SNW/Wheelspin hell
