Andreas, I get your point. Force-quitting is just a little technique... and using it is entirely a matter of personal choice. It has worked very well for me, so I use it whenever I have to.

As to the reasons for it not working at Stage 5, I could think of a few possibilities -

Could be because of 1) 'fixed goals'... like you said, or 2) since goals are not very hard till Day 5 anyway, so whether we force-quit or not, does not make much of a difference to difficulty levels there.

In my case, I am quite diligent with 'performance management' (bot slowing/force-quitting)... and I do this right from the first race in most events. Did the same for this event too (up until 7.3). But then, the exception at 7.3 turned out to be a mistake. As I had been force-quitting most races up until then, RR3 detected a huge difference in my performance between, say, 5.1 and 7.3... and boom... my next goal shot up like crazy!

Good luck with the remaining stages. 125 is an amazing car, and this has been a very very entertaining event despite all the trouble winning some races :). Cheers!
