Has anyone else noticed the stupidity of the AI drivers/team managers in the longer endurance races?

I never noticed it in the A-spec, but i've only did up to the Laguna Seca one and was probably more focused on my own driving rather than the other cars. I also never noticed it in any races before the 24hr ones, maybe they just weren't long enough for this to come into effect.

Anyway, I put on the B-Spec LE Mans 24hr in La Sarthe and went to bed, when I next checked, 10-11 hours into the race, the entire field with the exception of the 2 Vipers were pitting every single lap!

The only explanation I have for this is they have an auto pit strategy set up at 10-20% or something. This makes it completely ridiculously easy as they are losing 30-40 seconds a lap on a 3min 30sec course. I'd have to pit every 8 laps in a LMS car because of fuel meaning they are pitting 7 extra times or 3:30-4:40 minutes wasted leading me to lap them easily (even using a standard LMS car and using the D-pad on the controller as I do which loses several seconds a lap compared to someone on a wheel)

A reasonably good driver could win this race against LMS cars in a GT-R, which isn't realistic at all.
 
You are right. Just experienced this and can confirm.

I'm doing Le Mans 24h B-spec now, and they've done almost 18 hours. AI drivers are exhausted, and they change every lap.

I'm not sure how, in the 5 years of development, the did NOT discover this ridiculous mistake.


I stopped running the 908 HDi after about 10 hours as my B-specs didn't seem to match the lap times of the R8 and Pescarolos, and sent in the X2010. Don't get me started on this car. It just pisses me off that i'm 105 laps in front in a fantasy car. Might as well fly a magic dragon around the track eating glowing fruit. Stupid game!
 
G'day, I would first like to say I love the game, am sitting on about lvl 24 A-spec and lvl 23 B-spec and when reading the different posts I noticed there are endurance race but for the life of me I can't find them
Pretty please can someone tell me what I'm missing and where to find these races its driving me around the bend.
Cheers :crazy:

Welcome to GTPlanet, brissytom. Endurance races become available at level 25, so you're very, very close. When you hit level 25, they will be located right above the Extreme Events.
 
am also facing the same , the AI drivers after a while become so exhausted and start doing weird things but at the end they win the race ... GT needs lots of updates , Moreover, the stupid body and engine repair MY GOD I hate it ; its more than half of the car price !!!
