The maths

After a lot of complaining and afterwards thought, I deciced to upgrade my Mazda to 3332323 to get through day 4.

Not only completed day 4 but pretty much breezed through day 5, 6 & 7 as well. Currently waiting for the final day to open.

It's been quite enjoyable. Hard, challenging but doable. OK so there are a bunch of players who have done it with less PR but they are most probably better players.

I'm level 255, WTTT bottom of D, manual controls & settings.

I felt even better when I did the maths. I thought I had "paid to pass" but actually:

3332323 costs 75+70+55+65+60 gold = 325. All invested gold on the car.

You get 110 for completion of the event = 215.

As the Mazda is in TWO series, PR 85+ will get you to over 75% in both, so I'm estimating that's another 80?? golds. That leaves a net investment of 135 gold coins for an 800 GC car  (= around 85% off), or as you wish an upgraded Mazda worth 800+325 golds = 1125 GC (around 90% off).

Pretty good business if you ask me (if my maths are right of course)

Now have to make sure I don't screw up day 8  ;-)
