No need to spend 25 gold to skip the event. As is suggested numerous times over here make life easier for yourself by losing the event a few times. You will get an easier opponent after each race. If repair time is an issue try this: hire Eric the engineer for this event. Complete the race buttons it easy/drive slowly. Just make sure you finish your 3rd lap in front of the 375. Since you have 'won' the race Eric wil do his job and keep your car in good condition. After losing twice I got through, overtaking the 375 in the last chicane. Check: after first lap you should be some 2400 meters in front of your opponent, after lap 2 close to 5000 meters in front. If you did not manage this then continue for practice but force close the game just completing lap 3. Restart the game and retry: your car will be in same condition as when you started the race, even engineer is hired. Should allow you to win this at the cost of 2 or 3 gold max (pick up free gold from advertisements and it won't cost you anything). I found the other stage 7 events quite doable :). May sound strange but losing is they key to winning.
