Same boat as most. I eked out a win on the C63 with 3333333 upgrades, winning by 0.01 mph if I remember right. This time, my best effort was 193 mph, with bots around 193.87 mph and so on. (I believe Rosamond was my toughest bot). Couldn’t get them any slower, and I didn’t see myself getting much better, so I chose to bite the bullet and upgrade with 95 GC extra. It is worth noting the 11.2 Speed Snap goes from obscenely impossible to obscenely easy in the change from upgrades 3333333 to 3343333, as I ended up winning on the first try by about 0.5 mph (194.56? mph). I didn’t even bother purchasing/waiting for the fifth body upgrade as it is totally unnecessary anyway. The choice is yours; I simply took this path as wasting more hours on end chasing hundredths of mph in this event was no longer worth my time after I realized this 11.2 was even harder than the Mercedes-Benz one.

Just as an aside, while I don’t use brake or steer assists, I found the single most important change I made was turning Traction Control off. Usually I leave it on, but for these ridiculous speed challenges, you really need to be proficient at driving with it off in order to reach your true maximum velocity. I lose about 1 mph on these challenges with it on, and this is not a race you can afford that mistake.

I am also glad I had enough flexibility in my finances to afford blowing an extra upgrade on this car to win it. I feel bad for the newer players, who most likely have fewer resources, especially if they invested for 3333333 upgrades to win this car already. They choose 3333333 only to learn later that they don’t have enough to cover the added expense of the extra upgrade(s) to beat a race whose difficultly is too artificially high. This becomes exceedingly frustrating since it seems to have been caused by an erroneous coding issue from the developers and not from a mistake on the user’s end.
