Look for Synergy Bonuses

Keep in mind when you are upgrading your car that if you equip multiple parts from the same brand you will receive an additional synergy bonus which can substantially improve the performance of your car. When you use the Speed Card system you not only need to keep an eye out for high numbers but also at the color of the cards as they are color coded for each of the 5 different brands. Either match six parts by a single brand or six parts with three of each by two different brands.
