Finished, and 1+ day to spare. :) Didn't spend a single gold coin.

Tips:

1. Always save to cloud when you win an race. If you lose and need to repair the car, restore from cloud and try again. I lost count how many times I had to do this, but it beats waiting 5+ hours repairing the car, especially doing a 2+ lap cup and losing and needing to repair the car. Only repair when necessary. Also, if you have collected coins from watching ads, save again or you'll lose coins when you restore.

2. Endurance. If you know you can't beat the top distance, just retire (even before the race starts) and exit (don't retry). Then enter the event again. Repeat a few times until you reach something you can beat. When you retire, the 2nd place distance becomes the first the next time you enter. This continues each time you retire. Also, save to cloud before you attempt to do it properly. If you don't and lose and had to restore from cloud, you start the 'retire' and 'enter' process from scratch again. If you save and restore, you start with the distance you last saved.

Hope this helps. You can easily win the car without needing to use gold to speed up repair and/or on the maintenance guy. E.g. I finished stage 7-1 to 7-4 before I actually need to repair. Then I finished 7-5 and 7-6 before I complete this event and obtained the car.

I hope EA games or firemonkey doesn't read this and close this 'loophole'. :) shhhh!

Good luck on the next 2 events. I've to wait 2 days to start the next one.
