Should the A2RL race series be influenced by SimplePlanes Ai?

The A2RL race series is a racing series with fully autonomous vehicles. I've been taking a look at the on-track 'action', and it's just hopeless. Cars running into walls, stopping in the middle of the track, and going around corners at 10 km/h. It's a good laugh, though. But that got me thinking: Why not use ai code from SP to run the cars? Ai opponents in SP don't dither about, they go as fast as possible. Or what about KSB24's ai racers? They are the cutting edge of Funky Trees programming. Either way, I think an A2RL car with these codes could dominant its opponents.

What do you think of it though?
