Just in case anyone is interested in the reasoning for upgrading for GC 20 more than the Series event pays out, it is Tier 9 Race 2, NASCAR Circuit des 24 Heures.

The minimum PR is 51.0, however the payout for the race is R$86,600 and you can get around the four laps leaving enough of a Clean Race bonus to bring that to R$106,000. Winning the Race also gets you 15,800 Fame.

I am just getting to Redline Origins in the Career mode, so I do not yet have the Classic Ferrari Showdown Le Mans Races or the Endurance Races. The opportunity to farm this race ahead of The Sixth Element event, especially with the first race R$ and Fame bonuses today and tomorrow was the deciding factor in going for the upgrade cost to get to PR 51.

If you are beyond the Classic Ferrari Showdown of have the Endurance races, then it likely isn't worth the upgrade, unless about two laps of slipstream at Le Mans before overtaking first sounds like a fun way to spend a Saturday.
