Absolutely!

I went for horsepower too soon, and it took me 17 seasons to get out of
Club :)

You won't win at Silverdale in Club without DOWNFORCE!  I could not
believe how bad my ass was getting kicked at Silverdale, after playing
the Demo for 6 weeks!  You need to buy every bit of downforce and
suspension you can, right off the bat, if you want to progress thru Club
quickly.  You will graduate Club with all options available at that
level purchased, but if you go for the suspension/tires/downforce first
you will get there in 10-12 seasons instead of the 17 it took me.

Oh, well.  At least I had a pot full of money when I did finally hit
Pro:)

I suspect I will be in Pro for weeks.  I've bought everything I can, but
in Pro you actually have to tweak the car at each track to perfection to
graduate.  This will take time...
