It's quite easy to spot on that track. Once you get ahead, the AI will stick to you for a good while. You'll eventually lose them, however. Can't say why that happens, but it does - multiple times. Anyway, once the AI drops back far enough, it'll somehow increase its pace dramatically. Like, close a five second gap in a heart beat. Not that they can actually keep your pace, actually battle you for position or anything; they'll just catch up. On my second lap, I had only the #2 near me. Got suspicious and pushed him into an obstacle (for science). He dropped out of sight, of course, and a few seconds later, the previous #3 - who was nowhere to be seen previously, mind you - was breathing down my neck. Someone who's catching up to me like that ought to utterly destroy me. He didn't. I let him pass, allowed him to build a little gap but took the lead again a corner or two later.
Long story short, the AI gets incredibly fast if it needs to catch up to you. Magic.
This happened when I did the Goliath circuit the other day. Drove an HE car, and a non-HE car kept up with me the entire time. Though interestingly, when I wiped out a few times, the guy was always within a mile where I was.
