Well, one purpose I found was the little reward I felt whenever I “sync 100%” a track and circuit. And it does give your friends a chance to race you on those newly synced tracks.
But it may not seem to have a big effect on your daily payouts. Those seem to be somehow “normalized” to pay out 2600 to 4000 per day most days, more when your friends are racing, up to maybe 11K per day.
The sync is all about how much like you the drivatar races - has no effect on payout but affects what he looks like to others, and how he behaves on each track.
I know that, sorry if I didn’t make that clear. OP gets 3000 credits for 3 races so averaging 1000 credits per race. I got just shy of averaging 110 credits per race on my Drivatar payout.
I am not complaining or anything; just can’t comprehend the maths behind it since I get messages from people saying my drivatar is sooo quick (for them) which makes me wonder how it still manages to only get 100 credits per race
