Why does bob always get put in the worst possible car

[rabbitude]

I've been doing quite a bit of remote racing and am getting kind of frustrated. My bob gets put in the absolute worst car every race. Bob is getting beat consistently by lesser experienced drivers because he gets stuck in the worst cars. Just had to vent.......

Your not the only one mate. For me, I have good days and bad ones. Like most of the time I get put in rubbish cars like the Aston Martin disadvantage. But other days I come 5th place and up in the best cars. It's all a matter of chance mate. You get put in a good car and win. Think I have been remote racing for about 4 week now and I have only come 1st like 3 time!

Meh, it's just luck...
If you get the nardo in one race, or one of the cobra's in the seca-race, you're good.
Get the panoz-POC in Monza and you can forget about it...
Most cars are pretty close, but there a few makers and breakers...
(Which doesn't bother me... That way my low lvl bobs have a change to get a decent position for once.)

It happens to me too. My bob's level 33 and usually gets around 5th every race against drivers around level 16. He usually slaughters if he starts first or second though but that hardly happens.

Yeah. I primarily use the NASCAR remote race. The cars are fairly even so that you have a decent chance of winning. Considering that you can only have one of your driver in the race if you are hosting, you'll want to have an even chance of winning since you make so little otherwise.

I hosted a Circuit LaSarthe this morning, 16 drivers, My Bobs average LVL20, so most of my remote buddies are LVL 30+, but I still even the playing field chalk full of 16 drivers each race I host. What does my Bob get? a 2J '70 race car. What does everyone else get? Minolta, Audi, Mazda, Jaguar of the modern era. Still, I did not come in last. Out of 50 races, I will win 1. No matter, its al;l about earning $1 Million / Day with 6 driver slots, until the next hopeful update to "commandable Bob racing", as of now, the drivers are simply expendable.

Keep your friends list small and race multiple drivers per friend, ie: 4 drivers each from just 4 friends in any one race, then rotate them.
I find I win more races this way.

Also helps having high level drivers of course.

It is just hit or miss. I hated getting stuck in that stupid Aston Martin, but last week I watched my Bob start in last place at Laguna Seca in a 427 Cobra and make a great run to 2nd...then it was a close race between him and another 427 cobra. My guy won!

Yup, get in of those 2 and you're bound to be first or second...
The one with the roof usually seems to win it though, in the races I watched.

I hope they'll come up with FGT or kart races next time ^^
I dunno why, and it doesn't even matter since it's just remote races, but I wanna see some bobs go mental.

I get average cars. I got the Vantage on SS5 once and no prizes guessing which place I finished.

Nascar will give you the best chance with higher level Bobs.

 

[elston87]

I can agree with this to the highest extent. My Bobs always get the Cizeta V16T in SS5, which is a bit too much BS, not to say that I am hating on such a nice car, but sadly, it cannot for whatsoever reason keep up with the pack. I mean a W12 just wipes the competition up in a single sweep, period...

Why are the remote races not "one make races"? Fair on everyone then.

Apart from the starting grid I suppose - unless they put the least experienced guy in first and the most exprienced in 16th.

I got the Aston Today..it makes painful watching
