Of course, I see your counterpoint. But you missed my point. I've been vocal about my criticism of FM in the past for taking the fun away from the game by imposing restrictions and giving us ridiculous roadblocks like the two despicable 'mock drag races' in this challenge. Go through any of my comments over past six months, and you'll see what I mean. But they are offering us a free game! It takes a lot of effort to bring out a game of this quality, and effort doesn't come cheap. Neither does the licensing of the cars and the tracks. Of course, they are using as a bottleneck to get us to spend money, and while I'd much rather prefer if they made it a premium game and let us trade R$ for  in-game, I'm happy that at least they genuinely tried to make the last stage interesting after the disasters that were stage 3 & 5. I didn't have to cough out more for stage 7, and I can live with that. And oh! Ahmed being coded as a shitty driver was why 7.6 became interesting. I don't know about you, but at 18 upgrades, Rusty's Shelby and Magnus' Dodge easily out-accelerated my unserviced Chevy in straights. Plus they recovered almost instantly when you spin them out of track; in fact Rusty was harder to shake off compared to Magnus. Having to prop Ahmed up front past these two guys took a fair deal of deceit and trickery. :P
