How much GC did you earn over 11 hours?

Say it was 110 GC, that'd be 10 GC per hour or $1 per hour. Is that about right?

In case MELR2 doesn't see this, I'll give the math a shot. I've typed so many posts about Porsche Short math in the FXX K that the core facts are stuck in my head!

The answer I get is 400 gold for 11 hours, 36.36 gold/hour.

I don't know about a $ per hour rate so I will leave that to others. It would depend on the gold package bought and the currency it was purchased in.

Here's an explanation of the variables and assumptions I used:


 * I put 2000 km at 1,111.11 laps (2000/1.8). The track is longer than that but I spend about 1.8 km on track per lap, so that's all that counts towards fame.


 * I average 540 fame/lap if I don't get too sloppy, so 600,000 fame.


 * Running on 100% fame day with the Agent hired 600,000 X 2 X 2 = 2,400,000.

-At level 325 you need 6170 fame for 1 gold. -At level 625 you need 6640 fame for 1 gold. -At level 925 you need 6865 fame for 1 gold.
 * Now the amount of fame for 1 gold varies on your driver level. It floats around 6000 fame/1 gold until about level 250, then it gets progressively worse;


 * Since there isn't a definitive answer I went with pre level 325 number of 6,000 fame for 1 gold.

NOTE: Other people will get different results depending on how they drive it;
 * I read a post from a guy saying that he earned 515 fame/lap. That drops the total fame by 111,111 fame, which is nearly 2 - 10 lap races with the Agent hired! It also drops gold earned by 18.5.
 * You can earn more than 540 fame per lap, but then your lap times increase. In my tests, the gain in fame was equaled by the loss in time. Since fame/minute stayed about the same, I drive it fast and don't have to focus as much. However by staying really focused I could earn more.
