Oh, and a final heads up! Make sure that the error prompt "Please note: Your device's date and time are not synchronised..." flashes on the screen before you attempt the offline race.

I tried repeating the steps while just altering Step 3 so as not to service the car and continue, to see how that affects the outcome. It didn't work out as well as I had hoped..I wonder why. Car was still in need of servicing when I checked after relaunching game in Step 5. So I guess, you'll have to pay for servicing while offline. In the end, all you save in this manner is time that you while away, waiting for servicing. Or if you are in a hurry to earn fame using the big races, say on a 100% bonus fame day, I guess you can see it as a way of saving gold coins you would otherwise use to hire the mechanic.

Let me know if it worked for you. Cheers!
