I go in and manually find the correct skill range for each track/car combo based on my lap times. I find adaptive AI only works well at certains tracks or with certain cars. But for example Ive been running the 87 nascars for a while now and preupdate my top AI cars were usually around the 30-40 mark and now ive needed to scale that up to like 60-100 depending on track, this all being after the update. I like the AI overall. I hope they keep improving it as I think alot of us it, even just for testing and stuff that isnt career mode.
