Anyhow, in the interest of the topic and for other readers I will throw in my 2 cents.

I don't have the last engine upgrade on my F40 and I can win the race. I've never done bot slowing there and I used to farm there all the time, so the bots are cranked.

I just ran it again, as haven't ran it in a long time. No corner cutting on this race (although I have done that in the past). I was in 13th at the beggining of the first straight, I went WAY off track in the 1st corner (not in the advantagious way!) I braked too late. I was in the lead by the exit of the last chicane on lap 1 before the start/finish line. RattleSnack finished 8th with fully upgraded TSM players in front of him. I finished with a time of 13:58

The key is to  avoid serious bumps in the 1st lap. ESPECIALLY on that short straight going under the Dunlop bridge. Check your windshield for damage. ANY cracks mean reduced everything; top speed, acceleration, grip & braking. It's worth while restarting the race if you have any damage during the 1st lap. If you had hired any of the crew, force close the game, restart and you can re-enter the race with them already being hired.

I've got my F40 FU and I get no damage on my car and these f***ing bots still catch me on that first stretch before the PlayStation chicane. Whenever I get first another idiot comes from behind and spins me out. This happens especially near Arnage and Indianapolis. I remember I was in my last lap and auralpod spun me out. I nearly threw my nVidia Shield...
