Need for Speed: Carbon Tips & Tricks

Activate your Blocker/Brawler before the race. While racing and you are coming up to a speed trap, stop your Blocker/Brawler. This will crash the other car(s), and drastically slow down their time. Remember that the peak Blocker/Brawler moment is just before the speed trap.

In races where crew members are used, used a scout (Yumi if possible). If you do not win the race, your scout will.

Once you have completed career mode, set Samson as your wingman with Neville also in your crew. You can repeat any races you have already completed in which a wingman is used and recieve $750 for each race completed instead of the $500 without. This can also be used on first time races for maximum cash output.

Neville: Available at start.
Sal: Joins after four to six races.
Yumi: Joins after defeating Kenji/Bushido.
Colin: Joins after defeating Wolf/TFK.
Samson: Joins after defeating Angie/21st Street.
Nikki: Joins after defeating all three beginning Bosses.

Once you have disabled 5 Police Cars in a Police Chase,hit any truck twice and you will be walking on the road as long as you want.

When you are about to start racing and the countdown says 321, you have to accelerate your car before the race starts (You can also use nitrous before the race.) and you will get a speed boost.
