It took me a little while to recognize, but Amrosa has a very valid point here, especially for average drivers. Unfortunately he took a rather aggressive approach here, but the point remains valid. In principle there are 2 ways to approach these SEs: you can take the Amrosa approach, which is to recognize you're no Chronic Avidness, you won't win the car on sand and sticks alone, you'll have to upgrade eventually anyway, so figure what you'll likely need anyway, upgrade right away, have some fun without the frustration, save some time which you can use to farm. What he calls opportunity cost. Very valid principle, especially for average drivers. OR: you can take the ME7 approach: you've played this game for many years, career and LTS are basically boring ( no argument from me there) and you want to take your time to really challenge yourself and try to win each and every event with minimal expenditure. Just as valid, IMO.

I wish I could run these SEs like ME7, but I know my limited driving skills so running them like Amrosa is really not a bad idea.
