Done! With PR 60.8 (18/29).

I had to skip 7.5, but the 35 Gold to skip was well worth it. I tried a few upgrade scenarios, and the only way to not loose in the first 10 seconds would have meant spending at least 217 gold, which gave me all the power I needed, but there were a few tricky spots where the lead car got jammed up and I passed him. After failing time and again, I restored my PR 60.8 save, skipped 7.5 and figured I'd try my luck at 7.6

7.6 @ PR 60.8 was cake, so much so that I was in first place just after the turn onto Mulsanne Straight. In fact, after passing for 1st, I turned on high-braking, and cruised to a 700+ yard win.

So while I hate paying to skip, in this instance it was worth it. I know I'll have to pay to upgrade the car in order to complete German Grand Tour, but I'll leave that for another day. I already spent more than I wanted on this series.
