My Bobs can't win a single race :(

[DCSemi]

Guys, I'm starting to get pissed a little bit.

I've been using the Widget for almost 24 hours now, and my drivers aren't able to win a single race. They are (mostly of 'em) lv. 20s and I can't get 'em to win.

Is there a reason why? Is their personnalities have something to do with that?

Let me know how you get your bobs to win races please

It doesn't actually matter if you bobs don't win or not. If I remember correctly, the payout depends on what position your bob starts when the race is being loaded.

Someone correct me if i'm wrong.

Who cares? Lower level Bobs get paid more so as soon as they get above 30 I'm going to delete them and get new level 0 Bobs. My best driver is 195/284 while my worst is 1/182. And I think that's how the credits are worked Xenn.

There is actually a thread describing how the payout works and I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with level. IIRC it was all about position change.

I had a stretch yesterday, almost 9 hours, where my drivers were all rubbish. They couldn't win, hell they couldn't pass level 0 drivers. I'm talking drivers with high 20 to low 30 rankings. It seems to me that it goes in phases.

One of my drivers wins about 50% of the races he enters. The others win very rarely. Remember that sometimes the game makes it such that you can't win, for example of you're assigned that Vantage V8.

The one driver that wins a lot did nothing but X2010 grind for many races, and won all them, and has very good passing reflexes now (I think because of his upbringing in the fast car).

Yeah, I end up with the DisadVantage ALL the time but I've found that most of it is just doesn't make sense. I've come to terms with the fact that my level 38 Bobs all end up losing to less experienced ones, even newbies at level 0 !

Very odd. In races where cars are more or less equal, I usually see all the drivers with higher levels at the top. And even if a lower level driver ends up with a car s/he really should win in (and higher level drivers would), s/he still doesn't win. The only time level doesn't seem to matter is with the DisadVantage, whoever gets that car seems to come last, no matter what.

It seems to me that it's only one certain Bob, C. Heath who is level 38 that gets the DisadVantage. If I enter lower level Bobs then I end up with anything BUT the Aston so I've come to the conclusion that it's to do with the level of driver entered and not just random beastly luck or karma.

Seemed pretty much random to me so far. Been running the same drivers (and same competition) and the Vantage seems to be passed around. And nobody seems to be able to come even second last in it. Not even a level 40 driver against a level 0 driver. It's a rather stupid addition to the range of cars on offer if you ask me. Or is it actually possible to come second last in it, and you get like $1,000,000 credits and xp or something?

my bobs win very little but I dont care because prior to monday I was bspec level 0 now Im 26 with very little effort on my part, compared to the time its takes in a spec. Im very appreciative about the remote racing and the people who race my bobs

Gain a 1st place finish in the Vantage and Kaz comes to your house and personally hands over a trophy and bottle of champagne
