Remote racing courtesy

[MattZR1]

So I have a ton of friends to remote race and I am wondering how you guys with a alot of remote racing friends get equal amounts of time in? I just don't want to look like I'm not doing what I can for some people since I am usually pretty generous at running everyones bobs. Any suggestions as I feel I am overwhelmed by the amount of people I have to race when I host, lol.

You can either go down the list making a mental note of who you just ran or you can simply run the widget, making sure reciprocate is on and it will randomly select for you.

Which widget are you talking about?

Yeah I use the widget which just chooses people at random.

Matt, I have the same issue. But I take care if the guys that race my guys first, they are in every manual race I run. Then I'll mix it up for the rest, trying my best to get everyone on my friends list in at least every 2nd race.

The only one worth mentioning. This one.

Just keep it on random and save your race logs, take note of people who aren't getting much time in and actively switch them in and out of your always section.

I just keep my on random personally and the people who are good to me go to my always list.

The reciprocate feature is nice, but a lot of the people I remote race for compensate me in other ways, like parts, paint, cars, etc.

If you plan on remote racing, get Yonis' widget mentioned earlier. I highly recommend it. In my free time, I've been able to get about 2 mil Cr a day. Just make sure your PS3 is well ventilated.

This is exactly what I do. I always hook up most of the people on my friends list with paints, parts, and cars whenever I see they have been running the crap out of my Bobs. I am a very generous person, what can I say?👍

I received a car as a thanks the other day and thought it was a really cool gesture. I need to do the same for few who have been wearing my bobs out.

To the OP I just do what others are saying and set the widget to reciprocate. If I add a new friend who is hopefully using the widget I'll run several manual races using their bobs so I'm on their recip list and vice versa.

Where is this reciprocate option? I've never seen it and I've been through ever menu I can find.

Once you open the widget, right click in the widget and select the "Manage Drivers" option. Here you can rearrange the order your drivers are used (or select random) and also put your friends in the order you want their bobs used. There is an 'always use' list, 'never use' list, and the option to reciprocate. I beleive there is an option to use your friends at random also but I can't remember.

edit: I just stole this from the b sepc grinder thread, but it's is a screen shot of the manage drivers screen, originally posted by ConRollins
