Re: Prange?? I do that too sometimes. I did it in the one stage in this event where it was an endurance race at Lemans. I beat first place without realizing I didn't have to. You finishing third shouldn't hurt things much, if at all. I was just going for as much bot management as possible.

Re: SM Racer I don't believe you get more for upgrades than you do for BRL. However I often wrestle with only doing speed upgrades. In the long run it seems like the best strategy, but sometimes I think it might make the car worse. I think you can sometimes end up with a car that just gets looser easier, or where you have to brake earlier. I noticed that the brakes upgrade had a big effect on brakes this time.

I watched Speed Junkies video for 5.2 carefully just now. I had tried it quite a few times at his exact upgrades. I watched how far away he was from the 1st place at various points on the track & it made me feel better! I had a couple of runs that were similar, but my bounces were way out of control. I just thought it wasn't possible. Then I came back and saw that he pulled it off. I laughed out loud and enjoyed it quite a bit!

It is also possible that I'm a bit off. I had my wisdom teeth cut out yesterday, 10 hours before racing. I was definitely racing under the influence. Honestly though, I felt okay. Mind you I am on some heavy pain killers... LOL. Perhaps my judgment on being okay is lacking right now.
