Had done upto stage 4 with R$ upgrades only.

Tried 2 strategies for day 5

1. Engine 4 Drivetrain 4 (70 + 65 = 135 GC) PR 50.7 - all 4 stages passed on 1st attempt, time trial required 2 attempts as first 1 produced 46.009. second one produced 45.965

2. Drivetrain 4 Body 3 (65 + 36 = 101 GC) PR 50.4 - all 4 stages passed on 1st attempt.

For time trial and average speed staying near yellow line seems to be the trick. I have BA off TC off and SA high.

Now 6/7 stages will open from me on Sunday and Monday so I plan to wait till tomorrow to see how people deal with day 7 and decide final upgrade strategy. Don't want to spend more than required GC on this car. Have restored back to R$ only for now. during the day might try the reverse direction trick for 5.1 and make as much progress with R$ as possible for now.
