I really wonder how big the effect of upgrades really is. I remember during RTLM I kept track of the speeds I was hitting before the 1st Mulsanne chicane on the 919. These were ~345 km/h on stock, ~355 km/h on stage 1, and ~365 km/h fully R$-upgraded. The 93.3 Venoms at the end of front-runner were taking massive distance when compared to my PR89 car. But then again, that is Le Mans. Making full use of cornering upgrades doesn't seem that easy.

My current split is 22.5s, 1.25s away from group D. I'd need to shave about 2s per track to be in group B. If I rented GC upgrades, it seems feasible for Daytona & Indy (long tracks), very reasonable for Silverstone (only T&W and Suspension on the R18 right now), but not quite so clear in Suzuka.
