Me too. I got 160-something thousand.

This is about half the fame needed for me to level-up, or about 20 gold for about half hour of time. Without the 40% daily bonus, 100% agent and 100% double fame (=2*2*1.4=560% effective) the farming only produces 4 coins in 30 minutes. That comes to 8 coins per hour. If sale price is $100 real money per 1000 coins, those 8 coins earned in one hour of racing are worth about 80 cents real money.

Congratulations to coin farmers: you are saving 80 cents per hour of farming.

Side effects of coin farming include: irritability, decline in eyesight, opportunity cost of the time spent (which time could be better used resting, having fun otherwise, advancing your own business or getting awareness of the world around us) and few more. The health side effects will cost you much more in real $ to remedy.

Better alternative is weekly time trials. Top 10% gets you 50 coins. Top 5% gets 100. Top 0.1% gets 300 coins, but I have neve reached that. Only takes a few minutes to get a good race time.
