is there a way to choose which cars (robots) you want to race with?

This goes for both online and offline mode. In Project Gotham you have the ability to set up "bots" and choose exactly which car you'd like to race against. Is there any way to do this in GT5 at all? I noticed in arcade mode, that in certain races i am racing against 15 GT Citroens?! What the hell? I'd like to pick my own cars to race against. And would also like to do this as a host when playing online. For instance 6 live players, and the other 6 I can set up as bots and choose which cars I want to use for them.

Wish PD would allow this in there next update or something. Would be awesome if you can do this for B-spec mode as well, where you can choose the track, set the time/day/weather, and pick exactly which cars you want to see race and sit back and watch the show.
 
The closest thing is probably one make races.. other than that, I dont think you could choose bots to race against..
 
The reason 15 GT by Citroens were racing against you is because your car was tuned, am I right? There's probably no cars that match the PP of the tuned car so the citroens just show up. Annoying, I know :grumpy:.
What you can do to prevent this is run the cars stock in arcade mode, de-tune them and try different tires, because maybe you were using racing softs or something.
I really wish PD could let us select the cars our opponents drive too, it would save all the hassle with tuning just to try and get a good race in arcade mode. But we can only wish for this at the moment. 👎
 
Unfortunately, no, PD still hasn't implemented this into Arcade Mode (or, even better, as an Event Creator in GT Mode).
 
ahhh that sucks! Yeah this is pretty major to me at least. Really hope they can add this feature in. Would make racing so much more enjoyable.
 
I think the addition of a custom event creator would be an excellent idea!

Choosing each of the opponent cars ( and the number of laps ) , can give us the opportunity to create lots of races that are aren't available on A-Spec mode and can't be recreated on Arcade mode. They can give us also the option to create our custom tournaments ( racing series ) , and ( why not? ) to race against cars of our own garage.

Also in my opinion, an option like this can work very well with the GT 5 track generator too, as someone will be able to incorporate his own custom tracks too, on his custom racing series ( if he wants it of course! ) .

racing against your bobs of your friends would be good. as they gain XP they get better so might be a bit motre of a chalenge. I'm not a games programer so cant realy comment but when you choose your bobs yuou can see ther atributes before recruting them so all the information is there already...
