"We skipped many events early on because of difficulty, but now during flashbacks, we can win them easily because we are more skilled and are better drivers than before."

I skipped 8.3 here, and it's maybe my 3rd skip ever. Back in the day, I skipped when time pressure got to me. Now I skip when I see I'm about to waste time and nerves on a game that's supposed to be entertaining.

To be clear, I'm a regular C in WTTT, and I only have a handful of FUd cars. From my experience, passing a tricky event in an SE doesn't require only skill, but also luck. Some players find it easier to adapt their driving style to the given car + track combination; others take too much time to run a "perfect" race to make it in the time limit.

"If you can't win it at recommend PR, then a lot of improvement has to be made in your racing."

Yes, obviously. But SEs are time-restricted, so there isn't really enough space to perfect your driving style. It becomes a matter of dumb luck. It wouldn't surprise me if there were quite a few players who were able to meet SE goals in a regular race in the game, w/o the rigid time constraints. There's only so many things a player has control over - and, sure enough, if a player fails because they don't put enough effort into a task, they do only have themselves to blame.
