Talk:The Gauntlet (Season 8)/@comment-27554970-20160915060424

I also finished Gauntlet 8

No gold spent to upgrade any car (R$ only on all four Porsche's)

No Ads watched

I did cloud restore maybe 15 times (a few of them were finish backwards, but most were boss 4)

No gold spent on hiring Eric

104 challenges

23 boss challenges won

12 total attempts

18th was my furthest challenge won

I never game up on a run because I couldn't complete a challenge. I always intentionally lost the race after a hard boss challenge by quitting before the light turned green. The only mistake I made was to try for Boss 4 the second run (it was very hard). I was trying to reduce the amount of clock time I was putting into the event, and I didn't want to waste time going too far into the run where I had to retry a lot of boss races.

The only Bot management I did was to win by small margins.

The last boss challenge to win the car was 2 laps head to head at Suzuki East, with no more than 2 seconds off track. It was marked "Extreme". I won by 10 seconds (1:41 to Magnus's 1:52). Extremely easy, it was. I wasn't even trying too hard, as I didn't want to fall off the track.
