I see what he's saying and frankly I agree as well.

While some very top-tier, 1%er players have been able to get through 8.3 with all 3's (or even less in some cases), virtually everyone else will fall short.

However, just a single upgrade added suddenly makes 8.2 easy??? You honestly think that single upgrade made that big of a difference? One fewer GC upgrade and you'll spend hours on 8.2, but after adding a single additional GC upgrade, you suddenly can pass in a handful of attempts? That doesn't seem fishy to you at all? You don't think it has to do with FM getting their GC due and letting you pass? I know many of us players rarely seem much change from a single upgrade, much less enough to make that large of a difference on a goal.

As I've stated before, I've been around for every single SE this game has thrown our way. Ever since they've started with the recommended PR in SE's, it's been possible to win the car under the PR, if you're an above average driver. I've done it numerous times and I consider myself above average (though not top-tier for sure).

These past few SE's however, seem to have the "recommended" PR as a de facto "required" PR instead. Don't have that PR (even if you're less than 0.5 away), then you'd better either be a spectacular driver, or cough up more GC.

It's certainly a very noticeable change in their tactic, and maybe even the physics of the game, in order to force things to be this way. I get that it's definitely their game and they can set it up as they wish, but I don't think this is the correct answer.
