Opponents in the Carmageddon series are encountered in tiers. In general, the tougher an opponent's vehicle, the later in the game he or she will be encountered. New tiers do not supplant previous ones; when drivers from later tiers have been introduced, drivers from earlier tiers still appear alongside them in races.

Carmageddon TDR 2000
Each tier represents the race group in which the opponent first appears. Driver tiers in TDR 2000 do not work as they do in Carmageddon and Carmageddon II; rather than having a fixed combination of tiers represented, fresh vehicles in TDR 2000 are simply added to the pool of available opponents. This means that it's possible to have a race in which every opponent comes from a high tier, or a race in a later level comprised entirely of tier one vehicles.
