What do your AI drivers normally consist of?

Topic... just curious what everyone's AI drivers are.

My AI drivers line-up is a massive mash-up of numerous types.
In terms of real-world drivers I have a couple of drivers each from a number of real-world racing series. When I race these guys I usually have them racing in cars equal to their real-world racing series (for instance I won't stick Danica Patrick in a GT car, for instance). Most of the specially made option presets I've made for these guys reflect something close to the real-world series.

Here's my line-up, broken down according to the series they represent:
BTCC and WTCC: Andrew Jordan, Colin Turkington, Matt Neal, Andy Priaulx, Fiona Leggate
DTM: Tom Kristensen (yes I know he's also Le Mans driver), Christian Abt, Mika Hakkinen (ex-F1 driver), Katherine Legge
ALMS and LMS: Anthony Davidson, Jorg Bergmeister, Jan Magnussen, Scott Sharp, Mike Petersen, Pedro Lamy
Super GT: Seiji Ara and Yuji Ide
WRC: Marcus Gronholm (yeah I know he drives rallycross now), Ken Block, Michele Mouton (retired), Sebastien Loeb
FIA GT: Uwe Alzen, Thomas Mutsch, Paul Soderlund
IndyCar: Danica Patrick and Takuma Sato (ex-F1 driver)
NASCAR: Juan Pablo Montoya, Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jimmie Johnson
F1: Sebastien Vettel, Vitaly Petrov, Fernando Alonso
MotoGP: Valentino Rossi, Casey Stoner
Celebrities: Dan Greenawalt (Forza Motorsport director), Kazunori Yamauchi (Gran Turismo director), Keiichi Tsuchiya (Video Option star, ex-Le Mans driver), Ben Collins (aka The Stig)
misc.: Craig Lowndes (V8 Supercars), Chris Rado (Time Attack), Rhys Millen (hillclimb), Jutta Kleinschmidt (Dakar), Wyatt Gooden (Jetta TDI Cup)

In terms of fictional drivers, my line-up consists of characters from cartoons and games from both the East and the West... I use those for more ridiculous races. It ranges from mundane stuff like road car racing to wacky-but-still-possible "Works" (1000+ BHP hyper-tuned beasts with a GT car wrapping) to stupid impossible stuff like spaceships. These drivers have a number of specially-themed championships and hand-picked car choices.

I have way too many of these guys so I'm not going to bother listing everyone...

I use AIs with names of guys from community in their favourite colors. So which option should I vote, please?

Haruna · Post by **Haruna** » Sat Apr 16, 2011 1:58 pm

added the option

The horrificly boring combination of AI1, AI2, AI3, AI4, AI5 and AI6 who's only purpose is to fill the grid when I test my AI line in my tracks. Sort of a red-haired step-son thing going on there.

But the really horrific thing is that it seems I can't come up with 5 distinct color combos for all my AIs.

^^ I also have AI1-6 for testing cars. And I race alone, so I don't have any other AI that I regularly use. xD

What, is he trying to merge other drivers?

I'm currently using the original AI drivers that came with 1.10 but in the past I've used both F1 drivers and forum people.

I also usually use the boring AI1-6, but if I give them real names, they're always something totally fictional

Mad Dan · Post by **Mad Dan** » Sat Apr 16, 2011 5:58 pm

I used Xmas tree, Rudolf, Santa Claus, Snowflake, Jingle Bell from 1.05 CE all the time

I also usually take ai1-ai5. Maybe you should as well add this option

Back in the day I had forum people (I downloaded their driver files). I remember having Dan Belcher, Hova and K3rmit. Forgot who else always beat me

Now I just have a bunch of fictional surnames from various countries around the world

Here are mine. A few are Forza Motorsport 3 references. I also list different colors for them. I don't like racing the same guys over and over, so I cycle between these drivers on a very regular basis. They are divided into three specific categories: Forza Motorsport, Anime characters, and Real-life drivers.

Forza Motorsport:

R.Brown (White and dark blue)
A.Takahashi (Black)
J.Evans (Orange)

Anime characters:
H.Ikezawa (Dark purple of various shades)
T.Fujiwara (White and black)
H.Kazami (White and indigo)
C.Taira (Red and white)
H.Suzumiya (White and orange)
I.Einzbern (Greenish-off-white all round)
Y.Tanizaki (Pink and brown)
Y.Narumi (Light blue and silver)
I.Vincent (Dark blue and white)
M.Kobayakawa (White and very dark blue)

Real-life racers:
S.Nakano (Black and hot pink)
P.Lamy (Powder blue and light orange)
T.Kristensen (Silver and black)
M.Hezemans (Yellow and white)
A.McNish (Silver and yellow)
F.Konrad (White and aqua)
A.Davidson (Black and white)
J.Magnussen (Golden yellow and black)
J.Johnson (Silver and blue)
R.Kubica (Yellow and black)
S.Stoddart (Hot pink and white)
S.Neiman (Orange and blue)
T.Namba (Silver and sky blue)
P.Drayson (Shades of green)
S.Loeb (Red and dark blue)
S.Schmidt (White and silver)

DuklaLiberec · Post by **DuklaLiberec** » Sat Jan 14, 2012 4:34 pm

We already have a topic about that.

Fictional (from the best): Conrado, Filip, Sav, Sebastian, Mark.

Mad Dan · Post by **Mad Dan** » Sat Jan 14, 2012 6:40 pm

I wish there was AI randomizer which would give selected AIs random level from chosen range and randomize it every time I launch GR

. So it'd be surprise which opponent is fastest

My AI drivers consist of S. Vettel, J. Button, F. Alonso, M. Schumacher, K. Raikkonen, P. di Resta, which I use for F1 races.

For other races, I use the fictional drivers A. Bouchard, A. Riveira, D. van Beek, J. Santana, O. White, and R. Hamilton.

Exkakx · Post by **Exkakx** » Wed Feb 15, 2012 2:58 am

I just put in an all-white driver named GLADoS.

Qurpiz · Post by **Qurpiz** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 9:45 pm

There's

Blue
Yellow
Orange
Red
Green

that come with the game when you first install it, and...

Mr. Pink

whose colors are, well, pink. His driving skill is -15 of the others, and only gets track-time when I'm testing the AI-line.

Crowella · Post by **Crowella** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 11:45 pm

I use the default AI for testing since at level 100 I think it's fair.

I have some fictional names I got off a generator for racing with drivers varying from 91 to 115.

Krisu · Post by **Krisu** » Tue Jul 24, 2012 1:49 pm

I have some real pro-drivers from mostly F1, from past and present

The best of my all AI drivers is Jim Clark

Then, I have quite many cartoon characters whose skills range from somewhat decent up to excellent. There are names like Muumipappa, Roope Ankka (Scrooge McDuck) and such.
Some of my completely fictional names are P. Thundose, who has been an AI driver for 8 years

Then there's SAUNURI, T-REX and some others as well.

The lackluster of my squad is Jastin Beibe
