Are you tired of being shunted into the barrier at turn one in every single online race you do? Well, fear not. ApexRivals gives you the online ranking experience with ELO and a competitive environment but against Assetto Corsa or Automobilista 2's AI.
Within ApexRivals, created by modder EverLastingApex, you are not the main character. The AI does not pander to you, and the application does a fantastic job of ensuring each race you compete in has a consequence in the end if you have a terrible result. If you finish at the bottom of the table, you won't get an offer from a team in the higher division.

The variety of classes spans a tiered system, and once you have started climbing, you will come across more advanced machinery. You will start in karts, streetcars, and a handful of supercars before you get anywhere near GT or Formula cars.
The advancements through this career model are tailored to the experience you want to have. If you are racing in Assetto Corsa, you can adjust just about every getting to make the championship exactly how you want it to be.

Each AI is forced to be fully persistent throughout the career mode. This allows each AI driver to have an entire career, progression and stats, just like the player. Be aware that once you start reaching the heights of multi-class races, the load on your PC could become too much for some lower-end machines to load constantly.
It is not just Assetto Corsa you can enjoy this single-player experience through. The freshly updated Automobilista 2, in all of its 1.6 glory, is also an option. Of course, modding cars and tracks into Automobilista 2 is not possible as easily as with AC, but livery packs with accurate driver names, helmets and car liveries are! This next level of immersion is something unique that Automobilista 2 offers in droves.
There are so many routes you could take your career mode through. If you have a love of touring cars, there are plenty of mods to bolster your career mode appropriately. The same goes for formula cars, historic and GTs.

Mods & Add-ons
Unlike more generic career mode options, ApexRivals allows you to use your entire catalogue of mods and addons like liveries and sound packs.
