Several issues with this event

1. It doesn't give you enough engines. I'm just lucky I had 5 V12 engines in my inventory and that I saved a professional box from the Pagani Huayra BC R&D, which gave me another 3. Otherwise this event would have been far more painful.

2. The Tips/Warnings section says you can beat the event with a tuning of [3505 5050], which I'm pretty sure is a lie. I just tried test 60 at [3515 5053] and used a nitro starter, tuning kit, and extra tank, and still lost by a fraction of a second. I even made sure not to hit the walls.

Part of that might be because the AI pulled ahead of me right at the start of the race, and given the recommended tune (MAXPRO) I guess it was bound to be difficult.

I still have 11 hours to beat the AI and get the car, so I'm going to keep trying, but I'm worried I might not get it otherwise. I have 7250 tokens so I'd really rather not auto-pass considering how hard it is to get them without ever buying them.

I have 2 S upgrades waiting in my mastery events, so I might use them to max my acceleration.
