Talk:The Gauntlet (Season 3)/@comment-26070920-20160211113700

I like the Gauntlet because you don't have to wait for a new day of challenges to open up and can play continuously if you want. Also agree that the tougher challenges improve your skills (no touching + no skidding + no offtracks, the bots are much more agressive etc.). I have no trouble in endlessly trying those. It's then only a question of: do I try and get as high into the run as possible or do I get the money as quickly as possible by starting again.

What pisses me off is some challenges are just undoable (level 210, no assists, all cars including the RSR2015 with all the RS upgrades, no gold, won every challenge by the smallest of margins, usually few tenths of a second). In my case 2 boss challenges. A 3 or 4 lapper at Hockenheim at night where even if you managed second place the winner would be a few hundred yards / 4-5 seconds out of sight. And a 2 lapper around Le Mans where at the beginning of the first straight you'd be leading only to be overtaken by at least 4 or 5 and sometimes even more Astons, Ageras, Bugattis etc. Overtake a few back in the corners and be passed by a whole bunch again on the next straight. What a farce. No chance to win. No chance to drive defensively either, you'll just be spun around. Don't see a lot of players who have completed all challenges coming across these two, so I guess you just have to be lucky to miss them.

Still, the RSR 2015 is in the garage all the same. 3 or 4 runs bagging 80-140K did the trick for me.
