Going Pro, or an open letter to the AI drivers.
Dear Barry, Biig, Anh, and Greg.
I can see that you've all gotten out your best cars, and I appreciate the fact that you've come to pretend to race me. Especially you Biig, with your Gulf coloured Fastback. However there are two things I need to get off my chest. For starters a race called Going Pro implies a degree of professionalism from the drivers. Ramming others isn't very professional.
The other matter is slightly different. Biig, my friend, you need to either keep up, or get the hell out of the way. Be professional. If you're on lap 15 and in dead last position, the motorcycle that's gaining on you probably isn't interested in racing with you. No, really, I just want to pass you, and put you on -1 lap. Just move over and let me pass. I mean really, you're what looks like 20 seconds behing Anh and he/she is driving a bloody Ford F150 Raptor. Yes, I am as surprised as you are, Biig, that a pickup truck was entered in a circuit race, but at least that pickup isn't as slow as your Mustang. The only one of you lot who has a vague chance of keeping up is Greg with his green RUF, and even he is 7 seconds per lap too slow.
So please Biig, just move over. Let me pass and you can go back to your sunday drive. I really have no interest in racing you, I can't take your position from you in the race, because you're already last. Just stop swerving in front of me and trying to turn something into a race that isn't a race at all. I know the marshalls are out for lunch or something because no one is giving you a blue flag, even though that is exactly what you should be getting.
There is no race to be won for you, even if I had to walk the last laps, pushing the bike by hand, you couldn't possibly win. There was never any hint at a contest between the both of us.
Please mate, just move over and let me pass. Take a wide corner, move aside on one of the straights, I don't care. Just get out of my way.
If you don't want to be humiliated in a race like that, I suggest you buy a faster car, or even better, go to the bike dealer and buy yourself a BMW S1000RR, like I did. But this crap with not letting me pass when you're a full lap behind, that's just sad.
Don't be a sore loser, and just move over is someone is about to lap you. Thanks.
tl;dr: the AI needs to not fight for last place when you're a full lap ahead of them in a circuit race.
