Ok so here me out if you like this game that you don't have to believe me but I'm pretty sure the NPC races are rigged bc when the NPC is on the side then he goes way much more faster than he was originally going at and my car was faster than him and he was sitting on the side surpassing me! And I I've retried one more time and I won because I'm NPC kept on messing up but the first race he did not mess up!
