Good job ! :-)

How come you did not watch more ads to skip wait time? With Porsche (2 h repair) it takes only 5 ads to skip it.

I was trying to avoid a complicated explanation, so I kept it simple. Since you asked, I have no problem sharing why and how.

I figured out a way to both save time and make sure my ads didn't run out. I have had ads run out in the past when trying to do a whole bunch of upgrades fast (like with the Venom).

-It usually takes 5 ads to fully service the 2014 Porsche. -It usually takes 6 ads to fully service the 2015 Audi.

(1) Race Porsche; service; immediately watch 2 ads to get Porsche servicing down to approximately 59 minutes. (2) Race Audi; service; immediately watch 3 ads to get Audi servicing down to approximately 61 minutes. (3) Go back to Porsche and watch 1 ad since servicing is now below 30 minutes. (4) Repeat!

In doing this I only watched 3 ads for the Porsche (verses 5) and 4 for the Audi (verses 6). That's 4 less ads per hour. I save an average 2 minutes an hour. MUCH more importantly, my ads never ran out!

It usually take about 28 minutes to finish a race, but loading at the beggining and end eats up at least another minute. I always have a small delay before and after ads as well. Plus, I did a cloud save after every race, as I've lost progress before. All this makes up for the time gaps (59-28=31, 61-28=33).
