Putting suspension on your car can give you the edge in Street X races.

Before you do an outrun race, do a California Stop(when you run into the back right side of the car)and press up.Use as much nitro as you can until you win.Doing the California Stop will cause you opponent to spin out making it harder for them to win.

On Drift Modes take as long as you like drifting because when all the racers are at the finish line and not you it gives you a chance to rack up points.

If you wanna win an easy outrun,drive to someone on the highway on the right and push the back left side of the car until itspins out and press the up button to join the outrun and use ALL your nos.This works because while your opponents car spins,you will gain speed because highways gain the most speed because you'll go real fast!

(TIP)
Ok. To all you people who say make a car look cool, you don't have to. Just stick with what you have. If you have awsome performance, it makes up for looks.
Now for the money.
REAL TIP
My way of making money is to get on the highway. I start cruising at around 20 below my max, which is 157mph. I then keep going around the highway without getting off until I find a tuner. I use NOS to boost and I hit the tuner in the bumper HARD! Then at the last second when I can challenge, I take it. Then I zoom off. When you win, you can continue and get money and upgrades.
EXTRA STUFF
My quickest outrun race was 3.2 seconds. For some odd reason the tuner did doughnuts and my car went 200 mph(!?!?!?).

When doing my way of money, sometimes when you zoom off the tuner takes the lead somehow and he goes the other way. Some wierd things happen in outruns.

When you start out, get the Pudegout(spelling). It is very good in top speed.

Try getting the view in the best position viewing the trunk.
Start driving around. Your bound to run in to a person in a pimped out ride. When you do(if you do) go infront of him just & stop drive control. Maybe use nos during it
After that find the best view of front end, then take the photo
This is better with a normal car

Another way: open up your hood, Doors & your trunk. Then get out of showoff & go into drive control. Quickly use nitrous purge & get out of it. You can haveany view you like. After that just take the photo
This is better with an SUV

Basically any car can win a race like that if you have killer suspension.

When you do this, make sure to be on the big interstate. (Highway) First, you get behind your rival and start the outrun. You know when you're driving down the highway, there are those safety blocks seperating the lanes going in the opposite direction. Wait until the safety blocks end, and then quickly switch lanes right before they start again so your opponent will be confused and stop and turn around, and within that time you will win. Make sure your rival is less than 250 feet away when you switch lanes.

The best starting car by way is the Purgeot (sorry about spelling) 106
The downsid is that it sucks at Drag!


PS What is the best car in the Game??

Ok, to get the fastest car get that stupid mazda miata that you would call it...

And tune it, it's stats for acceleration top speed and handling all most at the end of the line! and when u tune it at body shop it looks really rad!!!!!!!

You will be unstoppable if you tune you car with all unique parts.

Most of the dudes here say that nissan skyline is the fastest car in the game, well no- skyline sucks at drift the only thing that is good at this car is that it's accelaration is at the top, but my friend can't beat me with his stupid skyline, he fix everything he can in the dyno are but he still can't beat me. Every car has ability to beat others, it's just that some cars are truely fast but not that fast!!!
I wont' tell you my favorite car but I have my top five and skyline is not one of them, I only use my top 3 car to beat my friends skyline and guess what it's rx-7.
So don't be saying that skyline is the fastest because it's not!

For long an straight races it is bettter to use then Nissan Skyline

The best car for Street-X races is the Mazda Miata

Ok Im not giving the actual setting away figuar them out on your own but for steetX you want handling, drag speed (duuuuuuhhhhhh), out runs I don't know drift acll., spint speed (also Duuuhhhhh)Ill post more later

If you are in somewhere in the middle of the game and you want a cooler car, I would recommend you to before you choose the car, go to the main menu and go to customize and tune up the car you wanted there to see if the parts you are going to istall it look cool.

It's kinda an obvious one, but seriously just do loads of Outruns during a stage and before the final race of that stage and you can get Uniques of just about anything.

If you want to have cars with 10 stars and as fast as it can then only get 4 car as you go through the game, I recomend that you get an SUV too

Hasnt anybody noticed this cheat already?!?!?

Its quite simple actually and you can do it on either carrear or th cusumize carz on main screen.

But basilcly you need to choose a vynal you want under neath your uniqe(i recomend a full body vinyl) and place in 1st slot then Purchace setup then deleate the vinyl you just bought and change the vinyl to your uniqe then go out of that menu (dont exit the garage or purchace setup) and go to paints.scroll round in there for a sec and then click /\.

Tada uniqe vinyl over a body vynal (also you get more Visual Rating).also it works on Xbox aswell

Get up close to stairs or somthing lower thn the front of your car when hidralucs Then preform hidrous and you will bounce the better the hidrous the higher you go.

For the steering ratio, it's actually better if you set it to soft as your steering will respond more quickly. For the sway bar and shocks, you need to have them around half way and springs: always have them to hard.

While in freerun follow these steps for a 2000+ point nitro

1. Stop the car
2. Set off and turn as hard as you can as though you're doing a 360
3. Let go of the left analog stick after about 90 degrees
4. Keep going as long as you want
5. Stop after about 2 minutes before you crash into traffic or a wall

If done correctly you should get a 2000+ point bonus which will fill your N20 gauge AND the overflow.

When in a race, especially sprints, look for shortcuts. They give you a great advantage on the track.

Uh you can wheelie without hydroils,go to brakes

NOTE:DO NOT INSTALL CROSS DRILLED ROTORS. Then do turbo glich.

Then go to dyno front spings all down back springs all up front sway bar all down rear sway bar all up then go to gears 1st:40mph 2nd:108mph 3nd:138 4th:158 5th:196 6th: 231mph note:use a MAZTA RX8 FOR BEST WHEELIE NOTE:I DRAGED RACE AND DID 14.35 IN A DRAG RACE..

Ok people, this trick is simple and it's effective. It'll be better if you do it on the highway, or where you have more space to drive.

Go chase any opponent car, but don't challenge him yet. First do some drafting with the enemy car. You can fill up your nitrous oxide very quickly in this way. Once you're done filling up your N2O, make some more drafting, but push the car from behind, then he'll brake and you'll make him turn either left or right, not take a right or left road, I mean, that his car will turn to one side and slide. When his car stops, then he'll retake the road, so here it goes: When you see his car starts to drift, accept the challenge, drive away, and use your entire N2O. If you're lucky, he'll take some time to retake the road and you'll easily win. If that doesn't work, then here's another hint:

When driving on the highway, there are some parts where the road divides into 2, 3 or more roads. Drive from one of those divisions towards the part where the road divides, then make a quick turn to the furthest road on the left or the right, the closest one, the ones that go down into the city. If done quickly enough,your opponent will go past the road you took, or take some time in turning around, giving you some seconds to use some N2O and leave him far away to win.

Hope this helps,

When you are doing drag racing do not control the car. This game is like slot cars. Simply tap the joystick left or right to change lanes or avoid traffic accidents.

More nos: have level 2 hydraulics and level3 nos. Put car in manual. Drive in a straight line until in 3rd gear, stay in mid 3rd gear. Slam squarely into a wall and hit the e-brake just before you do. Hold the e-brake until completely stopped, then release and hold quickly. Then jam the analog stick up and down until the hydraulics start. Y
