Speaking of an angry AI driver, I was messing around last night, bumping and trying to get the 11th place qualifier, RUF CTR2 driver, F. Espinoza all the way up to 1st or 2nd place. I couldn't get him to win, but I did manage to get him up to 4th place with a total time of 9:09.xxx... He was flying around the track! I'm sure it is possible to get Mr. Espinoza to win, but I ran out of patience trying.

Also.... Try bumping and pushing around P. Kelly, driver of the Cobra 427. Tick him off, and he will ram you and the other AI cars... It doesn't matter to him who is in his way!
 
MTM79, would you mind sharing your Trans Am setup for this? I have tried to tune for this with no luck... Love racing the TA on all seasonals but not having any luck this time. Thanks
 
Oh, and the common "No grip/AI gain a million HP and pit you if you so much as touch them" complaints as well, but an interesting thing I noted was that the less I hit the barriers and stuck to the AI's "Normal" driving line, the slower they ran, with the wining run the cleanest I did... Yet, try to run a car around like a rally car and clang barriers and the whole field speeds up, with the top 2 cars turning into "Rabbits" the more you mess up...

I decided to give this another go seeing that we'll have new seasonals in a couple hours. I didnt have an RGT, so I tried it with a 3400S. 548pp, entirely do-able. I set out to run clean race. On lap 4 the rabbit Bowers in a One-77 slowed way down for me. I caught up to him at the end of the lap, outbraked him at turn 1 and passed cleanly on the inside, and just ran away from him. 1:43 laps were enough.

I'm using a tune by @Bowtie-muscle . I really like his tunes for American cars. This particular Trans Am is a winner in several past seasonal events.

I drove this event one more time before the end. Wanted to leave with a smile on my face. So I did, Ferrari 458 by praiano detuned to 550PP. Fast acceleration, long powerslides. Fun.

A clean race is always a great feeling and for me more fun than a faster lap time. Bravo to you!!
