It might not be the best thing if you're just playing against the AI, but I can see how it would make the game much more challenging and fun if you're playing against other people. It puts everyone on a level playing field.
But it means that if you're good you won't take much of a lead... :)
Yeah, it probably is more fun for people who are no good. I'm sure I've played racing games with rubber-band AI for the player racers too... it's much better when it's an option you can turn off, however (sometimes it is). If everyone racing is decent it seems like it'd be more fun to play without AI help...

But it also means that if you aren't very good or mess up really bad that you aren't that far behind, which means that even if you're in the lead you won't be able to relax.

The point is you should be able to turn it off (in the home version).
