Well, if nothing else, at least the GC upgrades are instantaneous. Odds are pretty good that you'll need a handful of GC upgrades to finish anyhow, but I think it's fine to add them as you need them. If it were a R$ upgrade that requires 2 days, that's different.

Either way though, be prepared to have to add some GC upgrades to be able to win, even with the changed goals. I'm not aware of anyone posting here who managed to get by with only R$ upgrades. For the record, I spent 325GC on upgrades (16/26, PR 89.1) and 80GC to skip 8.5 and 8.6 (before they changed the goals). With the new goals, I think I could get by with PR 89.1 and not have to skip 8.5 and 8.6.

Best of Luck!
