Day six passed with 333333 (no assists) with seven tries at 6.5. The key to passing 6.5 is, of course, knowing the track. I found that hitting the wall in 6.5 is an almost guarenteed retry. You would rather hit another car than hit the wall. For the track, you not only need to know the layout and breaking points, but also the coasting points.

I found my coasting points to be just after the start/finish for going into turn one, and about halfway between the first and second red corner markers (on the left hand side) for turn two. (these seem to be the sticking points as you gain so much speed in the long straights). Breaking will be dependent upon where you set your coasting point. If you feel you aren't getting through the corner fast enough, you can "blip" your throttle in your coast to give you a bit more speed, but if you hit the wall, you might as well save the car and hit "retry", because it's going to be a long road from there.

I didn't save much power through the first two laps and caught Santos in the first turn of lap three. From that point on, you can control the speed of the race by coasting and blocking to preserve your battery. Finished the race with about 7% power left.
