3 laps of Nurburgring GP. A two second leeway.

I'm not that good, no matter how many upgrades.

The P1 GTR LTS, the Venom flashback; they couldn't shut up and take my money fast enough. I skipped one in Front Runner on the last day, fully upgraded. Just could be bothered to do the challenge.

If the bar is set too high, the game will die. The forum is safe for the time being.

I agree with you that they are often setting the bar too high. Day 8 of Frontrunner was one of the most frustrating days in the game for a lot of people.

For a long time we had events that could easily be won with just R$. I know because I was running Tilt A, SA high, BA low, TC on and I fininished many with just R$ back then. Then came the one Stingray SE with those stupid modified drag race (whatever they called it) and you HAD to upgrade with gold. No amount of skill could help you. I got mad back then and asked people to get vocal. I said it was the start of a new trend but most people just told me to chill out and back down. Well that was the turning point! Since then we have much less SE that could be won with just R$.

Now we have forced upgrades in LTS where no amount of skill can save you gold. It's not about skill anymore. Just a boring grind. I still haven't finished the 2017 Supercar series, i still want to gag when I see the cars after being force fed so many long races!
