I haven't ran a race just for credits in weeks and I've never rubber-banded indy. I have a full roster of b-spec drivers that other people on my friends list run for me (I never asked...I just figured i'd throw them out there and see what happens). I make 1/2 a mil every few days which is plenty enough to purchase 2 or 3 cars for a given theme (plus my meger winnings from running races nightly). You don't have to do anything for this. Just go to your driver list, select a driver and enable the "share" icon. Once you do that, anyone can use your driver in a race. Max out your driver list and people will grab several of them when they race their own drivers.
I don't spend hours tuning cars for these races either. The stock custom suspension with a little camber and some rollbar tweeks is all I do these days. I've stopped buying the LSD unless I really like the car. I tune during the 20 minutes before the first race.
I do get a little bummed when it turns out that a few cars are much faster than others so I think from now on the restrictions will be much tighter. But even then, you notice that Nic changed cars midway through last night and was still quick. We should all watch his replays to learn the tracks because if you ask me, he's consistently the fastest driver in the room.
I'm just trying to mix things up to keep people interested. There are always going to be 2 or 3 drivers out front with fast cars...but the real action is in the middle of the pack. Some of my favorite races have been well earned 6th or 7th place finishes...or when Grenade says "watch and learn huyler" and promptly goes into the sand trap.
