2. It seems you edited the driver name in the .rcd talent fie and the .veh vehicle fie, please make sure the driver names are all correctly spelled and all cars have their own talent files. If a driver with low talent settings always gets on top, that means this driver doesn't have his correct talent file.
3. Have you edited the field called "QualifyingAbility"? That value is a bit tricky, if you run a race without qualifying, the driver with the lowest value will be on pole position. The lower the value, the higher the grid position the driver will get. (QualifyingAbility means the average grid position the driver gets in qualifying.)
Hope these tips will help you!
