Don't simply accelerate and brake at the proper time, if you want the silver and gold trophies you need to turn sharply to the left at the last second to stop quicker.

When you are trying to complete all the driving challenges, here's a quick tip for the second slipstream challenge - you need to stay in fourth gear, as you will lose speed in fifth and not be able to make it - hold down L2 when in fourth to do this.

If you change your oil before driving a new car you gain horsepower. This also works on GT3.

Change your oil with every new car and you get more horsepower (10 / 15 HP). But if you do it when you fully tuned this new car you get even more horsepower (30 / 35 HP).

If you can't transfer credits from GT3, then pick up the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 4WD '92 for the Sunday Cup in the Beginners League.

By getting all golds in any particular racing series you will receive a car which you can use and/or sell for a tidy profit.

To get more money, build up your car and then beat the Capri race in the Special Conditions section. By doing this you will win a Toyota rally car worth $265,000. Keep racing the race over again and win the car a lot. It is the second race in the Special Conditions section.
