My Bob has done 600 races. He reached Level 40 at 427 races and I was expecting him to go downhill after that but he keeps on performing well.

His Speed and Strength bar peaked and a squiggly line appeared in the area I have marked with a green box. His mental strength does not seem to have moved since he became a level 40.

A few people have mentioned that after 500 races or so Bob starts loosing races but I have yet to see that. Early on in his career he lost his share but he shows no signs of slowing up.

I have 6 Bob's - 1@40 and 5@37.

None of them have reached to the end of the bars expect for the Level 40 and its only in the experience bar.

How do you know a squiggly line means that he's peaked in those areas?
My Bob isn't going to lose any future races, only endurance races after Indy left, I'll just give him my X1.
 
Well I am guessing the he has peaked because that line is not moving.

For sure use the X1 for grinding and Bob will never loose. Right now I just keep running the Dream Car race over and over to make some $$$$ to feed my car habit.
 
he is going downhill, that is what that squiggly line informs you, might not be visible to you on the track, but he is not performing as good as he once did. he is as of now performing at around level 32ish skill. Number of races does not matter much in terms of the career bar, I have a bob with about 100 races who has peaked.
every time you finish a race a day will "tick" for your active bobs, so even a level 0 who you have not run will have his career bar move. after 500 "days" the career bar will be filled, so techically you can have a level 0 bob who has peaked.

Well I am going to try and get as many races as I can from him. Hoping for at least 1,000. :)
 
My Bob has just started racing (I just started b-spec) and he has a win ratio of 40/40
I'm very proud of my bob,
He likes to drift the odd time, and has been a hor head from day one
But he is very consistent when he realizes that racing is serious
The odd time though, bob does forget that to take a corner it requires turning the steering wheel

Hahahaha
Sorry I'm really bored right now
 
Well my level 37's have never lost a race but Vinci was my 1st and there was some trying days. He's at 620 races and still going strong.
 
When you filled up his experience bar, did you recieve the "air of experience" trophy?
 
Yes I did and also got another one as a manager or something but never took a picture.

Ok I have had my original Bob for over 1600 GT5 days and now 644 races, when will he start to go downhill. At 427 races his experience bar was full and he continues to race now as he did then.
 
I am not sure if this is relevant or not but before filling my first bob's career bar (ie about 50 races short of the 500) the shaded lines started appearing on his skills bars. I did notice that as his mood changed so did the shaded areas ie mood up, shaded areas reduced and even disappeared and reversely when mood down.

His career bar maxed yesterday and my final Bspec race finishes later today after which I have absolutely no desire to do another one, but I wonder if this sort of trend occurs after maxing the career bar, or whether the shaded areas become permanent. I leave others who appreciate Bspec more than myself to investigate.
 
My shaded bars have not moved since he maxed his career at 427 races. I have been keeping an eye on and no changes.

Good luck on your final race. It feels good to be finished. Thought it would never end.
 
Today Bob reached 670 races and still no signs of slowing down or loosing his ability to drive. Go Bob 👍
 
My Bob has only ever driven as far as I know...I've never seen him run. Hope he can though or I'll have his bollocks!
 
My oldest, now retired Bob, had only 185 races under his belt before that dreaded silver thingy appeared above his speed bar. Only three weeks old was Bob when he started to decline. RIP
 
My Bob is now at 700 races and your Bob was going down at 185 races. It just doesn't seem to make any sense.
 
Didn't find the pics but fortunately I had an old save when he was alive lol. Here's some crappy Iphone pics of it. Tried to get it as best I could with the glare of the TV. Looks closely and you will see the squiggly lines on his "Speed" and "Strength" bars.
