AI Difficulty

Hello! I'm new to this game and also the forum. I'm currently using the 2016 mod and I'm really enjoying the game, but I have a problem.
Even in the easiest diffiulty level the AI is extremely difficult to beat. I literally cannot catch them unless they make a big mistake. I love how competitive and realistic they are, but I would like to adjust their ability to my level.

I hope you can help me!

several ways to adjust, the easiest is to amend the performance file txt and make sure it is selected in gpxpatch

I went to GpXPatch's settings in CSM, but I can't find where to select the performance option

if you start csm and click on the 2016 mod. you will see the folder associated.
look in data folder then performance folder, the txt files are there to edit.
hope this helps
