managed to win the car with 2432231 and a PR of 51.3

7.1 was the hardest on the last day, needed quite a few retries, but once that was done the rest were quite easy. Instant service helped quite a lot with the retries. The trick for 7.1 for me was to only overtake Danica in the third corner. I would have been able to overtake her in the second corner but staying behind her for an extra long straight gave me enough draft to reach 342 kmph (even though the car's top speed is 340 kmph with these upgrades), so it was a bit easier to catch the group ahead.

Cost of upgrade was 133GC, got 90 back for completing the special event resulting in a net cost of 43GC for me. If I manage to reach 75% in DPCC (not sure yet maybe only 50% will be possible) then I can also get 9+14+19=42 there, giving a net sum of 1GC for the upgraded car
