Car in the garage with 3331313.

Stage 8 was another hard day. In 8.1, the key was right at the beginning as you probably need to leave the dunlop chicane at least in 3rd to get a shot at entering the mulsanne straight leading the pack. Then, the easiest path is to pit the 2nd place bot so that you have a comfortable cushion to finish 110 yds ahead.

In 8.4, It took me many attempts  to figure out how to pass Zoe before the start of the full lap. In my case, I needed to be aggressive on both mulsanne and arnage turns so that I could get to the Porsche curves close enough to make a pass. In my successful lap, I passed her right after leaving the curves. Then, I let her catch up again on the mulsanne straight so that I could pit her and not worry about putting together a perfect lap.

Hard event (from day 2 there were some not so trivial races) but satisfying. Once again, glad that I only needed one extra upgrade compared to the elite racers. Thanks to Speed Master for taking the time to re-run and post videos for the newbies here.
