Finished the event with one gold upgrade for engine (and the subsequent R$ upgrade).

Did maximum bot slowing, including not improving my time in the time trials. Finished just under 2:35 on day 1, then every day after that I finished a bit over 2:35.

Until the very last time trial, 7.6. I decided to go all out there and I set a decent time of 2:02 I think.

Then came 7.7. Just the one fast time on 7.6 gave me the fastest bots in the game for 7.7. It was impossible to win, because there was just no way to catch up to the leaders from the start at place 22.

So I had to slow the bots again. It's very easy though. You just have to start the event, but even before the lights turn green, you can quit. Then press continue. Start the race again and then you'll see the bots in the starting grid have changed. They'll be slower. You can verify this by looking at the 1st place finishing time when you quit the race. I did that a dozen times and the bots were slow enough again to make it an easy win.

Wrote this as a slight warning; if you don't want to have to slow the bots at the last race, don't finish fast on 7.6.
