I'm not complaining about spending GC. In fact since I got to 100% of cars I've been happier to spend GC to keep up the stable. The problem is two-fold. First the game is becoming unsustainable. Even to "win" car you have to pay out a substantial amount of GC when you used to be able to do that with hard work. At the same time they cut back on the GCs you win from these challenges. Moreover they've been monkeying around with the rewards system so you get less a month (though with the x3 for Elite this month that might change).

Second they put out ludicrous recommended PRs so you have no idea how much you're going to have to spend. I've already invested over 1.4 of the PR for 6.5 and I'm still 2 secs. per lap off the pace. While I might be able to win a 700GC car for a 500GC investment in upgrades  that's still more than I can afford (especially as there are three of these cars in this upgrade).

This is not actaully a free game, you do pay with your eyeballs, but more relevant is that I used to have fun when I was making progress, but now I'm not sure I'm even keeping up and at that point it is not fun any more (and not because I've suddenly become a poorer driver). And that's why I'm seriously considering packing it in. Previously I've got close to quiting but as I had nowhere else to go I stayed. Now, however, with the acquisition of a XBox (which is equvalent to 3000GC) and purchasing even a few driving games (at 500GC a piece) I've got somewhere to jump.
