Tournament entry. Kinda iffy, and might crash for no reason. Finishes around 2 minutes flat. Tops out at around 700 mph. Let's cross our fingers and hope for the best.

@SHCow That applies more to dogfights than racing, but yeah.
Actually, the AI sort of already has a maneuver that can work as a missile dodge. When they detect a lock or launch, they enter fight-mode, and turn to face you. Sometimes their arc makes them dodge a missile if it's tight enough.
@Treadmill103 If the next big update gives the AI an upgrade, I'd be SO happy. Basic terrain avoidance is all I ask.
@Treadmill103 Thanks! I always feel uneasy leaving it up to the AI though. It's got about a 75% pass rate on both lanes. I'll be satisfied if it just survives the first round of eliminations.
