    Alright, I finished the event as well. The 7th race is a pain in the butt if you don't know how to be fast. I got almost 400k cash out of the event (I could have grinded for 10 more Batteries, but I wouldn't have been able to). Car ended on 736 PR post conversion. Finally, anyone here was able to upgrade their Epic ECU to rank 5? There's a material missing for it, and the game says you can obtain it with crates (I highly doubt that).

    I already have the other purple part the ECU needs; it only needs a battery now and then it's rank 5. I can't remember how I obtained it though.

    Update: It's now rank 5 and gained 1 PR out of it. It seems like the part is indeed obtainable via loading docks; mine changed shipment upon level up and it probably got looted without me noticing. And my goodness it sure is expensive to upgrade it any further.

    So what's the advice?

    Sell all prototype parts and materials before the final race?

    No, those prototype parts are automatically converted into cash after you finish the event. I think I had around 90 spare parts in my storage and after the event it got me over 300,000 to spend.

    Ah - fantastic. Cheers! Currently have a mere 83 ;)

    And five parts that are one non-grind able material off an upgrade. Bastards!

    (All spare cash to date has gone on basic crates... Which leaves me unconvinced that many more basic crates will yield many more grind able parts. £60k in the bank atm, and two races off the finish. May make a judgment call then!)

    Help, I can't upgrade the M4 F82 to 740. Only 12hrs left, but I have spent all my Gold, Cash, and Tournament Cash too.

    Grind, grind and grind again. If you can't grind enough, then you needed to've ground more in previous days...

    Yeah I'm seeing that too. Hopefully it's just a timing screw up and the banner has gone live too soon.

    Any tips for beating razor? I can't seem to catch up to him at all. Only at the last bend but he is too fast

    Hate to say it, but I think I beat him first time round. PR of something... erm... like 752?

    Didn't need owt more than standard... drift a bit, nitro a bit, draft a bit, slip past. And tbh, he struck me (in my only race against him!) as considerably easier than some of the earlier ones (who I beat by hundredths of a second).

    Persist, and good luck!

    I had trouble with Razor first time around so on second race right from the start I rammed him into the wall and not him out of the race and cruised to the finish. #

    Razor's Mustang GT is now being sold for $10. I'm somewhat interested to know what parts it comes with and such.

    I never got the snoop dog car so not sure what it came with, but I guess they're similar.

    Buying the snoop car with blueprints got all blue parts. Pretty sure that I saw the same advertised on an "omg buy this awsummmzzzzz" post-loading screen.

    Just heard from someone who bought the Mustang GT and apparently what you get is the car in stage 2 form with stage 2 equipment. It opens up a special loading dock crate area upon purchase where you can get the rest of the cards needed to level the car up. That's... pretty bad. I was very tempted to actually get the car since it looked pretty cool, but I want it to be useful, too. Not for me, I guess.

    At times like this, this forum needs a :rofl: emoticon.

    Must say, every time I look at a substantial-way-to-go grind, a little bit of me dies inside.

    You are just 10 blueprints short of a fully upgraded STI!

    Shoot me now...

    Was hoping they would have special crates for the upcoming event. Really need blueprints for my snoop car.

    Define "need"... ;)

    E2a: tbf, apologies. I'm swiftly approaching my "no longer give a f4ck" point with this NFS, I think / hope.

    I'm basically watching 40-second promotional videos of what a racing game would look like, if I was racing (in a racing game with joke-level unequal races) in order to play a themed slot machine.

    The challenges have been dragging me through, but I'm hitting the OH MY GOD NO MORE OF THIS wall more and more frequently. I haven't even easyraced for parts whilst at work this week. And that must be the sound of a death knell looming.
