To those still in the championship and stuck in Dubai/Nevada stage, a word of caution: if you think this is bad what you have till now, some pretty ugly surprises are waiting upfront. The Dubai stage is a bit tricky as most will still have the car a bit undertuned. If you get the upgrades necessary & NOT take the unnecessary scenic airborne route, you finish the Dubai stage without much trouble.

Nevada is actually quite forgiving after Dubai. The only thing is the route or section chosen is NOT the usual one taken by many, thus having some airborne surprises/normal road crashes. Practicing 1/2 races outside the event with any car matching the speed will easily fix this, if you happen to have one.

Now is the actual ugly bit.

If you thought that Dubai &/or Nevada was problematic, far more severe & frustrating punishment awaits you a bit more ahead. Upgrading this car for Azure coast will only serve a little bit, as upgrading suspension/exhaust gains are really negligible. The reality is, like the Dubai stage, this part of Azure coast has rapid S bends which WILL NOT HELP with upgrading the suspension/exhaust, only a little pump maybe. If you really have to, just go up to the 2/3 level in exhaust, leave the suspension. Absolutely no use whatsoever for the Azure coast.

What will help a LOT, if you can manage, is honing skills on a really sharp & quick cornering gameplay. This will let you pass the tests or otherwise it’s a living hell.

Trust me, while losing 5/6 tyres for the first time in championship in the last stage, it became apparent that skills are needed with a min upgrade & NOT a max pro car.

Hope this helps, my victory seem hollow & left a very bitter aftertaste.
