I spent 154 on gold upgrades (55+55+44) and an inconsequential amount on $R upgrades. I too don't worry about upgrading cars that are going to need it later anyways. With the career series for these cars, only one of them needs to be upgraded ( according to the information currently available). So if you can finish one of these events with no gold upgrades you are ahead. However, I'm not looking to spend a bunch of time mastering a car that I will never drive after I'm done the career series. I expect I will do some upgrades on the second car. I won't buy 3 gold upgrades in one shot where I did last time though. I'll take it slower and only buy what I need to get by.

People who always drive with no assists have earned themselves an advantage. They know the approximate points for braking and just have to adjust it. I know I could take the time and learn how to drive with no assists, I just don't want to. I've done it in different team events,  I'm just never good enough at it that it's better than when I drive with assists. I can place in group B in the WTTT every week. I found getting group A times was almost impossible. As such I have no motivation to drive without assists... other than when it's mandatory in these events :)
