Tips and tricks
- Nitro or boost is best used on straights where you are already stable, not to rescue a bad corner.
- Traffic and rivals are predictable: they hold their line. Plan your overtake two cars ahead rather than reacting to the one in front.
- Slow in, fast out. Entering a corner a little slower lets you accelerate earlier on the exit, which almost always beats a hard, late braking approach.
- Use the whole width of the road. Cutting across from the outside to the inside of a bend and back out again shortens the distance and keeps your speed up.
- Because this is a Skills game, practise the hardest input in isolation before you attempt a full run.
