I got my Honda S2000 LM Race Car, fully tuned it and went to test it in the Dream Car Championship at Nurburgring thinking I can't win overall but I can at least win out of the non-real race cars :P.

Anyway, I started the race in 4th after the GP track bit, knowing I have to fight the cars using Cornering and not Speed. I started pulling ahead from the cars behind me thinking 'how is this so easy' and then the AMG Mercedes CLK LM Race Car was just ahead. I overtake it and noticed I was going faster than the leader (BMW V12 LMR). On the last lap I was getting more closer and even overtook the Jaguar XJR-9 for 2nd. At the end I got the lead but not by far. I was on the straight and lost my position because the BMW rammed me (though I was blocking so its Karma :lol:) and finished in 2nd. I saved the replay but I don't know how to show it :( but
HOW DID A HONDA S2000 LM COME CLOSE TO WINNING.
I did it again with a faster car (Mitsubishi STC) and won.

I only got 3 solutions to this weird turn of events:
1. The A.I are that 🤬
2. The cars were using harder tyres
3. The cars are tuned down.
 
yes. the more you move up the position & closer you get A.I cars slow down to let you win specially in last lap(s)
its been discussed many times before.
 
Yes, lots of times before. It's an odd situation and it also seems to have borrowed from the GT5 seasonals in that the field varies according to what you pick. Well, it does in most cases, just maybe not with the Dream Car Championship as we always seem to get the racecars.
 
You have the replay, why not look at it and see what happened? You can see what tyres the AI used, and I believe you can also see throttle inputs etc.

You can indeed, you could also open Live Timing and watch the leader's sector times lap-by-lap... I think you'll find that he kind of loses interest after a couple of tours.
