Agree. I guess it's only fair really. These car often cost quite a bit more after the fact. Plus, you'll likely need to spring for the G-upgrades once you win the car and use it in the normal events anyhow, so you're not really losing much. I guess it was only a matter of time really, even as frustrating as it is.

Scares me a bit for some of the more expensive cars though with this system. Can you imagine how much Gold we'll need to stockpile to win 3 LeMans cars next year (assuming they do a similar event to this years)? Some of those upgrades can be ~100GC on their own, times multiple upgrades, times 3 cars??

Only mistake I made here was wipining out a good portion of my GC before this event started, not knowing this would happen. So, I had to hold off a little before I could purchase the necessary upgrades to proceed. Thankfully, I was close to a level upgrade and a few progress upgrades in a few events as well so it went pretty quick.

I won't make that mistake again.
