Hi guys,

First, thanks again for sharing this info!

Second, I wanted to share my 2 cents on this fame/mile, fame/lap, fame/minute discussion.

My first successful run in the FXX K had an average of just less than 500 fame/lap.

Since then, I have improved my SA Off driving(a little), and today I got an 508,(3) fame/lap average.

427000 fame / 210 laps / 4(manager+100%fame) = 508,(3) fame/lap

I could have gone longer, but I had some other stuff to do and was afraid of my phone crapping out. I leveled up twice for 76 gold, so not bad. Not full level ups, but if you consider that 1 ~= 6000 fame, I got around 70 gold worth of fame.

Now I want to calculate how much more fame I would have gained if I would have cut a lot less, like you are trying to do:

540 * 4 * 210 = 453600 fame

453600 -  427000 = 26600 fame that would have been added if I ran almost as clean as possible - I am saying almost, since you do need to cut somewhere. This converts into ~ 4 more gold.

I'm not saying it's nothing, but is it really worth the effort? At least for non pros, I think it's not. I could have raced 10 more minutes, at my own pace, for the same amount of gold. Of course, some calculation should be made around fame/minute, which is the most important, but for me it is difficult to time all the breaks I take during one run.

Third, I really appreciate your commitment to keeping this thread alive, and teaching players how to squeeze every bit of fame/gold out this race/FM.

Going back to Jimmie Johnson LTS, and the hopes for 100% garage.
