One thing I would love is to be able to set the length for each event, so I could run a 3 lap race or a 300 lap race if I wished.

Obviously you earn more credits for longer races e.g A 5 lap race nets you Cr.40,000 but a 50 lap race nets you Cr. 400,000 and more for even longer events.

Races would be scalable in 3 ways: Laps, Time or (for endurance events) distance percentage.

Similar to how PC sims do it, including tyre & fuel wear scale, damage severity, AI strength & aggression, race time & weather conditions (including time & weather scale), flag rules, number of AI drivers (especially in Arcade Mode), start type (standing or rolling start, including pace lap), and whether or not to hold a qualifying session.

For standard events (and Arcade Mode) it would be possible to scale events from 1 to 500 laps, with the player earning 2,500 for each KM and a multiplier based on difficulty.

E.G A 100KM race (Around 45 Mins, about 20 laps on most GP tracks) against Legendary AI (1.5x Cr.) would earn the player 375,000 credits, wheras a 20KM race (about 5 laps) against Novice AI (0.75x Cr.) would earn 37,500 credits. Special Events & Seasonals would not be scalable, and would have the same payouts as before.

Multipliers:
Novice AI (75% of Real Life): 0.75x
Rookie AI (85% of Real Life): 0.85x
Amateur AI (90% of Real Life): 0.90x
Semi-Pro AI (95% of Real Life): 0.95x
Pro AI (100% of Real Life): 1x
Expert AI (110% of Real Life): 1.10x
Extreme AI: (120% of Real Life): 1.20x
Legendary AI: (125% of Real Life): 1.25x

Endurance Events (GT Mode only) events would start at their standard length and would be able to be scaled down to a minimum of 5% (1% for 24 Hour Events). Tyre, fuel, weather and time would be automatically scaled, with tyre & fuel wear having a maximum of 5X the normal wear and time & weather going up to 60x.

Example: 24 Hours of LeMans (Cr. 1,000,000 Prize)

100%: 24 Hours (1,000,000)
50%: 12 Hours (500,000)
25%: 6 Hours (250,000)
10%: 3 Hours (125,000)
5%: 1.5 Hours (75,000)
2%: 48 Minutes (50,000)
1%: 24 Minutes (25,000)
