Tips and tricks
- Look where you want to go, not at the wall you want to avoid. Your steering follows your attention.
- If the game has upgrades, put the first ones into handling or brakes rather than top speed — control wins more races than raw power at the beginning.
- Learn one track completely before moving on. Knowing where every bend is worth several seconds a lap and the skill carries over.
- 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.
- Because this is a Simulator game, learn the systems slowly — simulations reward understanding over speed.
