How do I make the rivals harder?

[amperbee]

Even on the hardest CPU difficulty, my rival is always a lap behind me. I don't understand how does he keep doing it.
Is there any way to make my rival more competent than me?

what did Amper mean by this.

 

[EeveeEuphoria]

have you tried using a joy-con with severe joy-stick drift?

I don't want to handicap myself, I want to make the rivals more challenging.
I want to earn my glory.

Play as a character who's rival is bomb because we all know bomb is the objectively best character in ring racers and it isn't close

I’m dumb why is bomb the best competitively?

okay if you actually want my advice on how to do it

1. Make a mod that’s a copy of the worst character in ring racers
2. In the rivals parameter, make all rival characters the best character in ring racers

this way, your always at a disadvantage

bonus points if edit the worst character to be even worse and make a copy of the best character to make it even better

No you don't get it the solution needs to not handicap the player, just make the rivals stronger

They never said that the solution didn’t have to involve handicapping yourself, considering that’s how you make most things you think are easy harder

Would it make things harder by adding SPB logic to the rival so regardless of the track, conditions, or inconveniences they are always behind you.
Bonus points if you instantly explode anytime the rival touches you in anyway.

Actually yeah. Just replace your rival with a better version of themself. The spb
