Car 172 in the garage. Hardest part for me was the aggressive bots in Stage 7. Probably why there was no off-track parameters for that level. They weren’t just pitting me, cars were spinning all over the place. I upgraded engine to level 5 before 7.3 and 7.4 to just take it easy on myself after reading on here how difficult it was for some.

I was dreading Stage 8, but the bots weren’t a bunch of pit happy jerks on this level. Cleared all levels but 8.3 and 8.4 first run. Lot of trial and error on 8.3 until I figured the best process, did the 5 passes before 3rd elimination. Almost had 8.4 on one try but went off on the last darn corner because I over-cooked it wary that my average speed wouldn’t hold going so slow there. Then, of course, it took me a lot of try’s too get it after that. After 20 minutes I upgraded body to 4 and passed it after another 10 minutes.

More gold than I wanted to put out at 5343333 but I wasn’t going to not go through to the end and I did it with no skips. I usually end up having to skip one part at least due to time constraints and not wanting to run out of time and not get the car, but this time I started 1 day after it opened so I had 2 weekend days to run without that stress.

Thanks Chronic Avidness for your bonnet videos. Nice to have some videos the same perspective I use also.
