You need outright speed more than additional grip or brakes in this event, that's why many people (including me) focused on speed upgrades and skipping suspension and brakes. Sure, those upgrades are cheaper to get higher PR, but PR is useless if it's boosted by brakes and you still can't hit the speed needed in 8.2 for example.

I went for 5331313, costing me 555 GC (minus 100 in rewards), which made day 8 fairly easy. Could be done cheaper with 3341313, but I wanted PR 104 to unlock Dubai Oval 9-lapper for overtaking team challenge (which gave 40 GC, so net cost was about the same, but engine at 5 brings more speed for last 3 events, which is useful).
