Er—maybe I got you wrong, but how can one get into the top 3000 in this type of cup after finishing first in only three races?

If you do a race only a few minutes after the cup has started, it's clear that you reach the top 100 because there are only few people who also played the cup this early. But if you start let's say 12 hours late it's difficult to catch up with other players that have already played a lot more races. It's only the multitude of races that counts (combined with the place you finish, of course, 1st always grants more points than 8th).

I did a few races now and then and now am at position 2694 (with 2701 points). I didn't notice anything unusual with this cup.
