It takes a while to work out the "rules of engagement" with the AI on this track. I did a bunch of laps with AI at 9 or 10+. 'difficult to avoid confrontation at certain times.

Don't back up. Just keep going.

That suspension + those bumps gives me a jarring headache! Successful early run, nonetheless.

Congrats to everyone. Happy with my run. Was able to try with 0/-5/-10 AI. Third time was the best. I think I remember ABud mentioning in the last SuperGT. He used -10 to get the buggers out of the way. My run below.

I ran my AI at + 6. They seemed to be most friendly at that speed. I noticed at +10 my times were faster but there was excessive contract.

 

[speedemon08]

Had My AI at +1. Not too much of a problem, except for the first corner. Sneaky tactics ensued for the OPEL in 5th
