Basically your 20 seconds run out before the bots start braking for the first corner and unless you are way over the required PR for the Tier, you have no chance of making at least 7th place.

After failing a few times I had Moises Gaby (the slowest bot) as 7th bot and had to upgrade to 2322232, PR 4.7 just to have a chance of catching it up enough to pit it before being eliminated. Absolutely ridiculous since the required PR for Tier 7.3 (the cup race) is only 3.5.

I have basically needed all the GC upgrades required to complete the whole LTS, just to have any chance of passing 7.1. Nothing to do with skill, just flat out acceleration before the timer runs out.

Of course with those many upgrades I was easily in position 1 by the apex of the first corner and just drank tea for the rest of the race whilst checking now and again in the rear view mirror.

Doesn’t anybody test these LTSs at FM before launching them on the public?!

Tip for anyone else just starting this LTS: Do all the necessary engine, gearbox, body, exhaust and tyre upgrades to start with, and leave suspension and brakes to the very end. I serviced the car and it was ok for me.
