I was trying for over an hour with R$ + 3 GC upgrades (1331311) and got VERY close a few times (1:11.681 was best), but just couldn't get under 1:11.600 ... Then I added tyre upgrades (1331313) and done it quickly after that with a far from perfect run.

So, if you have the nerves, try a few times. It's a new track and a new car that requires its own driving style so you have room for improvement. You'll probably see if it's doable for you or not, then decide if it's worth upgrading.

Considering that the car isn't too expensive even with a few gold upgrades, I'd suggest not loosing too much nerves over some coins. I've spent 135 GC, getting 70 GC in return = 65 GC net. Add 75% completion in its series and I'm at 23 GC loss overall.

If you manage to finish with 3 (or less) GC upgrades, you're looking at positive GC balance after this SE and 1 series.
