I have 105 cars and 70 are maxed. I ahven't spent a single penny so far. It's because I grinded. I have close to 30 days of playing time. I too end up among top 2000 - 4000 regularly in the TLEs. Right now I am on 3500 in the current Alps TLE.

I too won the D class R&D for Alfa Romeo.

But this doesn't qualify as success because there are many other events in Asphalt 8 where you can't succeed by just playing.

The R&D events are too stressful. I am on LAB 003 TEST 028 but I feel I can't take the stress anymore. I might as well go upto Test 034 for the Advanced Kit box and that's it. To complete such stressful Tests you need A tokens. If you don't have enough, you will need to buy. GL gives about 20-30 A Tokens per TLE. So you will need weeks to collect a 1000.

I can't see how anyone can win the Egoista R&D with just 200 Tokens. If you do, you are much above an average player with an amazing capacity to handle all the stress.

In fact, one can win the R&D without playing a single game by just using A Tokens to skip tests! So this isn't a gamer's game. If you spend real money on A Tokens, you needn't play the R&D at all.

And GL maintains the pressure throughout. The aim throughout is to make the gamers pay real money. Whether you choose to skip such events and avoid paying is another matter.
