I haven't farmed the last two updates and I have the same gold as before them. So in theory, all farming should be going towards progressing in the game. This is why I focused on WTTT before getting to 100% complete. You can´t keep up in group B just with 100 GC every week, moreover  if you have into account you have to upgrade expensive cars to achieve competitive times.

maybe you can survive few weeks in group B while old cars that you upgraded before last 2 updates are in WTTT, but when new cars come up the party will be over

You missed Sirebel's point.

If you can get to a Garage that is 100% complete and upgraded enough to complete all series, then if you are in Group B in WTTT, that is enough extra gold, along with Daily Reward Gold throughout the month (presumably you are an elite player at that point, so double everything), Gold Rewards from New Car Events and from the series that they are in, and leveling up occasionally as well, the updates become Gold neutral and you don't have to keep adding to the pot with farming. You are wrong Let's put an example. Completing Bathurst 2017 series. You have to buy Nissan Altima for 400 GC with discount, then upgrade other car for 200GC more to get back 100 GC for series completion, then Bathurst 2017 cars will be in WTTT, so you get back another 100 GC, result : you spent 600 GC and get back 200, so your net balance is -400 GC.

The point of this thread is to ask for an advice from a player who doesn't have all cars and upgrades, so I wonder who missed the point?

And I can bet sirebel farmed a lot to reach his comfortable situation, as I did, and I bet he eventually will be farming again to keep there. I prefer data. You can find Sirebel's data and analysis on this wiki. It is all there. Given the constraints explained earlier, the Updates have been gold neutral.

His analysis and data also show, that for most newer users, or users with far less completion, the goals of 100% garage and completion are, for the most part unattainable... though the Flashbacks help defer some of that cost.
