Michael:

I noticed a couple of posts further back you mentioned using 1 GC a day for fame manager paying for itself as you level up. I have not been following the thread, but will suggest an amplification of that point.

Based on the amount of fame points it takes to level up, it seems like a little over 6000 fame points is the equivalent of one GC. Although you get more GCs per level up at higher levels, because the amount of fame it takes to level up also increases, this relationship seems to be maintained for at least quite a while. Obviously, in each grouping of 25 levels per each coin, the fame per coin ratio is lower at the start and higher towards the end, but it all averages out.

If so, it is worth it to pay for double fame for any race that awards, let's  say, at least 7000 fame points so long as you know you will win (or close out before losing). As you level up, the coins spent will pay for themselves. Not doubling up on the fame in this situation is just wasting an opportunity to earn more GCs than you would otherwise.

For what it is worth, I am assuming that one can earn enough GCs for all their needs eventually and, therefore, one need not worry that you will get to level 1000 and still be short GCs that you could have saved by not following this strategy. For me, that point (enough GCs to buy all cars and upgrade them enough to complete all races) was in the 200s.
