Sledgehammer / Gear Grinder

I have been playing a level for more than 3 hours in total
I just can't do it. It's called Running fight, it's the last challenge in the second stage. The time of the 3rd segment is just horrible, impossible to arrive in time, there is not enough police cars to destroy and gain that time. It's the second time I installed this game, the first time ended just like this I lost hours and couldn't finish it, the same level. In the old GearGrinder version people had 16 seconds more at the start of the 3rd stage, judged by the videos. Horrible!!

Чтобы побеждать в этих режимах, нужно накапливать за собой толпу машин, пропускать их вперёд и уничтожать.

I agree with abyss24 100%.
I have been trying to beat this level but no way.
It's just too damm hard. First it's though to beat the slalom, then the second part is ok ( fighting police cars) but why o why did they have to make the 3d part so hard. You don't know if you have to constantly slow down in order to make new police cars overtake you in order to destroy them to get some couple seconds more, or it's best to speed up as much as you can. The thing is, the person who didn't complete this level doesn't know how long the 3d part is and therefore cannot know what the best strategy is.
I just don't understand the decision making of developers like this. Why making a level so hard and that level is the REQUIREMENT FOR ADVANCING THE STORY.
So basically I'm stuck in the first story and can't continue the game.
Thank you very much developers, are you satisfied? Do you think it's best business to frustrate your players?

Oh yes sometimes it seems some devs just play the level, making the best time they can, and then I can see them supposing "Oh, if we made it to 1:30 let's make the goal time 1:15, yeah it will be more challenging, players love challenge."

Also, I translated what our Russian friend says; "To win in these modes, you need to accumulate a crowd of cars behind you, let them go ahead and destroy them." Probably he is right and perhaps I will try this method, but I think I did already all kind of strategies I could think of, including drving in first person view etc...

I managed to beat that level.
The trick in the third part is indeed to slow down and let as many police cars overtake and then blow them up in order to gather more time.
