I am 2nd guessing my plan to fully upgrade the Toyota. It's 1333 gold even with the discount. The last engine upgrade 540 gold alone (720 regular!). There's other places to spend that money. I wanted 2 2014 LMP1 cars for double fame weekends. It is WAY cheaper to fully upgrade the Porsche (just 1 more engine for me) and then hire the mechanic every time.

Take a look at THIS thread. It shows the best times of various forum members. The Porsche is pretty high on that list. The best Porsche time is 22 seconds slower then the best Toyota. Is it worth spending 1333 gold for 22 seconds? Not for me.

Now if you could get Group A speeds in WTTT, then it would make sense. 300 gold a week adds up fast.

On EK I don't ever bother running my Audi serviced. Whilst it takes about 2-3 minutes longer to complete the whole race, I've slowed the bots enough to still lap them even completely unserviced. Means I never bother running my other two LMP1s.
