However with this one race thing like in FE or Mclaren WTTT, I am having to race everyday to defend my 50GCs (I am in the lower end of Group B). Suddenly everyone is getting better everyday. I am still trying to wrap my head around this as to how is it that in WTTT with 4 stages there is barely any improvement in player skills but in these single track TTs & with a single HERO car, people are getting competitive.

Is it the fact that people are more inclined to invest & upgrade only 1 car to rank better (even if it costs more GCs) then go around upgrading 4 cars OR its just a one time fluke where the Mclaren 720S just happens to be FU'd by the majority already and is being put into use? It has to do with the reward structure. There is currently a HUUUUGE gap between the bottom of B overall and A. If you have all four cars heavily/fully upgraded, it is pretty trivial to get solidly into B overall and A overall, being typically less than 100 people, is just way to hard to get to, so many people aren't going to slave away trying to pick up a tenth here or there since there is no reward change. In the McLaren/FE TTs, the top 5% is subdivided into 3 groups, rather than two, and the top 1% is much easier to achieve than the top 0.01% ;)
