It is 546GC to win in the LTS, then an additional 340GC to FU. You could get a few more shekles from OMP...

That works out to a 22.5% discount on the Upgrades. Yep 🧐 I won it in its flashback last year, it's at 75.8 PR right now and this made me really happy because that car is amazing and it totally has to be featured way more than it was until now - more series, OMP, WTTT. ES and LTS are excellent news 👍

However though, I'm not sure I like this:


 * Honda NSX-R Championship
 * Rewards: Honda NSX-R, 130 Gold, R$100,000
 * Start Date: Saturday, 6 April 2019
 * End Date: Monday, 15 April 2019
 * Maximum Required PR: 32.8

130 reward from a 37.0 PR car's LTS?! So that's about 900 to FU or what the heck? 🙄 It can be a mistake ... Maybe it's 30 GC, it seems more logical. We will know soon :) No. It is not a mistake... I asked directly when they showed it to us.

I don't know the reasoning behind doing it this way, but my speculations are:
 * Discourage Skipping - getting in the first time the LTS is run will always subsidize you the most
 * There have been lots of complaints about lower rewards... you increase the rewards but increase the costs as well (significantly) and play with the psychology of people only paying attention to the splash screen and not tracking the amount of gold when they click the upgrade button
 * If data shows that most people always wait to upgrade when there is a sale, you make the upgrade costs more so that when sales roll around, you make the margin you are looking to make
 * EA made them do it
