On the GTP account, I bought another Honda S660 for
this week's WRS time trial as both of mine had been altered for attempts at the Kei car races. I then ran a 1-stop race at Sardegna with the Aston Martin DBR9. I probably could have ran FM4 all the way, but I played it safe and ran FM5 until I got to the front stretch on lap 5.
The 4-star Wheel of Despair didn't pay for anything as it gave me yet another Toyota Crown Athlete G. I did hang onto it for future tuning purposes though as I won't make 20,000,000 Cr. before the 1994 McLaren F1 sells out, but will before the last of the 20,000,000-Cr. Hagerty's unicorns I still need does on its next appearance.
On the Plus account, I started off by buying said McLaren as the next race will get me back over 20,000,000 Cr. That dipped the number of cars left to buy on this account to 22 (all from Hagerty's) and the present value of those 22 to a "mere" 210,250,000 Cr.
I celebrated by using the Suzuki Escudo at Sardegna on a 1-stop strategy. I used FM6 throughout, shifting with the HUD rev counter at halfway the first stint and 2/3rds on the second, and going flat-out on the last lap (1:33.8) to finish in 24:46.
The 4-star Wheel of Despair insulted me with a semi-racing muffler. Figures.
