Day 3 went very smoothly. Event 3.1 and 3.2 were very straightforward races, and I used the Endurance event in 3.3 to slow down the bots. I'm preparing ahead in case we hit "Ride the Storm"-type barriers toward the end of this challenge.

For event 3.4, "Accelerate to 126 mph (203 kph) at 20 seconds into the race and win," I found that I needed to be traveling at least 126 mph at the 20 second mark. Traveling slower than 126 mph at the 20 second mark immediately ended the event. After passing the 20 second mark at 126 mph or greater, I could travel at whatever speed I wanted for the rest of the event.

My first try at this event, I was traveling at full speed from the start and when I reached the 20 second mark, I was entering the first of the 'S' curves where it was difficult to maintain 126 mph. To pass the event, I slowed down for the first ~5-10 seconds after the start of the race. This allowed me to get past turns 1 and 2, then hit 126 mph in the small straight just before the 'S' curves.
