HOW TO EASILY BEAT THIS R&D

I've seen a lot of such videos on YouTube and I thought I'd take a moment to give future A8 noobs some pointers on how to come out on top with this R&D.

1. The first step is to relax! Don't worry -- you've got 12 days to beat this thing! 2. Slowly tune the car up to MAX 3303/PRO 0000 as permitted by the tests in Lab 1 3. If you fail a test then don't Auto-Pass or buy the test's Quality Checks -- Remember: You've got 12 days to beat this thing! 4. Get as far as you can through Lab 2 as your skills and booster resources allow by committing the following four lines from the song, "The Gambler" by Kenny Rogers to memory: You've got to know when to hold 'em Know when to fold 'em Know when to walk away And know when to run 5. If you can adhere to the above rules then congratulations! You've beaten this R&D! And if you ever see this event's revival in the future then simply rinse and repeat. The only way to truly punish GL for this atrocious R&D is to farm its valuable resources in exchange for less valuable resources such as credits. Somebody at GL had to invest time devising Labs 3 & 4 as well as the steep costs to successfully complete the R&D. Partially playing the R&D is a good way to extract value from it while sending a clear message that their efforts were wasted in the end.

An event that trolls this heavily on players is, IMHO, an absolute insult to those whom may actually suffer from gambling addiction. There's more than a fine line between earnestly making money by challenging a player's abilities and viciously capitalizing on one's uncontrollable impulses. This event is clearly the latter.
