Tips & Strategies
- •Start drifts before corners, not during them - anticipation is key
- •Higher speed = more drift points, but harder to control
- •Release the handbrake briefly to regain control, then re-engage
- •Focus on checkpoint completion first, then add drifts as you learn the track
- •Use obstacles strategically - sometimes a close pass scores more than playing safe
- •Complete full laps for the 500-point bonus - it adds up quickly!
