easy way to destroy everyone else in typeracer

inject typeracer.js or typeracerSpace.js once race has started

it triggers events listened for by their JavaScript handlers

i also included typeracerSpace.js which will autofill the word. if you click the input field (.txtInput) and hold your keyboard's space key, you will do very, very well 😆 ... this method seems to consistently perform better at avoiding being caught by the system since it uses events emitted from your keyboard rather than jQuery's nearly undocumented which argument.

that said, be careful. do it too many times and the captcha test comes up, which gets hard w/ the speed requirements! also, you may get disqualified lol (WARNING: gets fun quickly)

... (tried that a few more times)

... snap

5 second countdown... ohhh snap

i have not implemented a bot for the above situation yet. i'll take a look at OCR libraries to de-captcha when I get a chance. i think it's plausible because accuracy doesn't have to be near 100% since it's a typing test!

UPDATE: node-decaptcher seems to produce results with high enough accuracy for the challenge captcha. now it's a matter of implementing decaptcha or a similar mechanism in the browser as @jeresig describes here.

btw, i don't encourage cheating
