At lvl 109, fame for next level is 151,000 while the reward is 25.

151,000 / 25 = 6040

This means that, if you run 25 races that have a base fame reward of 6040 fame, you will level up and earn 25 gold.

Profit: 25 gold

If you use the agent for each of the 25 races, you would spend 25 gold, but level up twice*, gaining 50 gold.

Profit: 50 (leveling up) - 25 (agent) = 25 gold

So the break even point for lvl 109 is 6040, calculated with a more simple formula:

L / G = F (fame for break even)

Using the formula from the previous post, for lvl 109:

G = 25

L = 151,000

F = 6,040

1. Without agent:  6,040 / 151,000 x 25 = 1

2. With agent:     6,040 / 151,000 x 25 x 2 - 1 = 1

"Whenever 2 is greater than 1, it is worth hiring the agent."

So any race with a payout larger than 6,040 is a good candidate for using the agent.

Unfortunately, as previously said, there is also the risk of not getting 1st in that race.

Again unfortunately, per my knowledge, there aren't many races in the range 6k - 10k fame,

so for casual players, I would recommend using the agent only for the standard farming races: EC 10 lapper,

EK 10 lapper, Classic Ferrari Showdown 4 lapper.

For the more passionate racers, they should hire the agent for any race that pays > 7,000 fame.


 * you will not actually level up since the amount of fame for lvl 110 (going to 111)

is 152,000 (1k more), but the difference is minimal and can be disregarded.
