3.4 Indy Speedway possible with fully degraded PR18.1 car (that's just applying the Tier 1 R$ upgrades). For reference to get to this I think I've lost about 3 races so far in the series (although my baseline might be low from downgrading the Ferrari Le Mans 4 lapper to 17:30+ minutes) - I completed 3.4 Indy Road and 3.4 Laguna Seca with fully degraded car before trying to do the Speedway.

Was coming second on first try so dropped out and let everyone lap me. Bots downgraded a bit more and I won it second time round (by about 30 yards).

Other comments are correct in that you have to make sure you keep the "best line" and you'll get a lovely top speed boost from the car behind you trying to drive through you rather than around you. This is the time where the lack of a blue flag is in your favour (as opposed to the usual lapped tailmarker trying to crash your car off the road).
