NFS Most Wanted Black Edition (PC): Can't Seem to Get any Pink Slips, Am I Just Unlucky?

I've been playing this old game for a bit and I've beaten 4 blacklist members already. I've missed getting the pink slips each time which is 1 out of 3 every time or 1/81 in total.

What's wrong?

Full disclosure, I'm playing dodi-repack of the game.

Just unlucky, I've played through the game many times and some runs I get none other runs I get a lot. There is a pattern to some of them, but if you are just picking yourself it's truly random, there's no "loaded dice" system involved to throw the player a bone. (though you'd think there would be with how aggressive catchup is XD)

catch-up? is that why bosses doesn't seem to go far even when I make a huge mistake?

Yup and why they come flying up your ass when you are ahead. It's usually mostly in the computers favor lol.

Earl is the worst for this.

Earl is the worst for this.

I just finished Earl. Either the AI for catchup for Earl is egregious as you've said or the tail end of the race is mostly cornering and I'm just bad at it. I had to restart like 4 times.
