A number of my old posts document the fact that repeated running of the same event leads to the fastest participants dropping out.  It turns out that this feature is still in operation.  I've been working in the Exclusive Series with the M-B 190E, a car that I just recently fully upgraded.  With 5 previous exclusive cars, I had no trouble getting to 100% but with the 190 I've been facing much tougher competition and have had to re-run events mutltiple times.  Here are the results from an autocross event:  All 3 races were run within a 2 hr period. 

As you can see, my 1st place time would have been a 5th place time if had had the same opponents that I faced when I finished 5th.  The monkees really want you finish 1st.
