Great, thanks :) Judging by myself it does not work to the desired effect, but you're probably right.

For me it simply leads to less time spent in the game. What I'd love to see is adjustable AI cars in solo race, for example two sliders; one for AI skill (level, so you could adjust them to be better than you) and one for how aggressive the AI cars are in trying to wreck you. Alternatively a check-box 'Only Ultimate AIs'. As it is today, any race against the computer controlled AI cars is a Sunday drive to victory for anyone with more than a week experience and I have months of playtime...I obviously miss racing other people. However, I will not accept any ticket system to be able to do so as the game should be ready for my enjoyment when I have time, not the other way around (50 tickets (isn't that max?) should still give one great last session).

It is, since it is the ultimate arcade racer, a tad sad to notice I play less and less, but the game has 'grabbed' just short of $500 over the years and that is way above limit, even for the ultimate arcade racer. Noticing greed got me off the hook pretty quick two years ago though :)
