The Upgrades do nothing if you are not running the correct line. That was my point.

You run the correct line and get the time of 1:11. You upgrade and can run even better.

But that does not describe the majority of us. Certain tracks, like Le Mans, Upgrades can sometimes mask lack of skill, but not here.

With 3333333 I was able to match your sector 1 and 2 times when you were at 1311111 and ME7 when he was at 1331333. I am even a few tenths quicker than you and him now that I have 5333333, but when I get to sector three, especially the last turn it all falls apart, and not amount of upgrades will change the fact that I am probably setting up the Essess slightly wrong entering sector 3, and I can't make the turn without either a) skidding, b) being flagged as off trying to get too tight to the apex, or c)braking enough to make the turn but crossing 3/4 second too late.

And that is why I am saying that it is skill and not upgrades that make the difference.
