    Here’s a few tips I learnt from a full day of playing this game.
    Upgrades to get:
    -Cams (increased acceleration and top speed)
    -Turbo (best value for money regarding power)
    -Coilovers (cars handle like trucks in this game, you need handling upgrades)
    -Intercooler/Radiator for cooling (I aim to keep cooling at 100% or more)
    -Tires (handling)
    -Aftermarket gauges (stock gauges are useless after certain speeds)
    -Transmission (focus on this later when you have more money)
    Driving tips:
    -Keep your eyes on the road at least 95% of the time, this level of focus is required at top speed
    -Listen to your engine and figure out when you’re close to the redline through hearing only, so you won’t have to glance at the tachometer
    -Shift down only when you’re on really low revs, shifting is quite slow and clunky
    -Heat tires to about 30 degrees for drag (take this with a grain of salt, that temp works for me generally speaking)
    -Brake early for turns
    -If necessary, brake slightly to avoid traffic. Better slow down a little than slow down a lot (crashing)
    Hope this helps!

    A big issue I always notice with the racing community is that they always tend to underrated racing games with potential until it is too late. Blur, Split Second, Grid Legends, Unleashed 2 Turbocharged...

Also make sure u have your fully maxed out for when u get to the boss they are seriously hard and he doesn’t play fair and also if you go upstairs in your garage . Where the tv is if u look at the games on the floor you will see some great classics games .

    I've played about 15 hours and pretty much maxed out my car/raced everyone.
    Here's some tips for you Theo:
    1. If you go into the customisation menu you can change certain things with your car. E.g changing the BOV sound or changing the placement of your licence plate.
    2. As far as I know, the engine stays at amber all the time and there's no real issue there.
    3. Fun fact I found out accidentally, if you reject your opponent's wager, you can ask to wager more money! (Usually allows you to reject 3 times, sometimes less and the money you can squeeze depends on the specific opponent).
    4. You might want to increase your handling before any more engine mods, it makes the maneuverability honestly soooo much more smoother.
    There's much more to find out, but I'll leave you to figure that out in the next video

      At this point in the game, rivals do not scale. A rival’s reputation is a rough measure of how difficult of an opponent they are relative to you. Raise your rep, spend your cash on upgrades, learn the highway, and you’ll be ready to take on tougher competition.
      It would be awesome to see rivals dynamically upgrade their cars throughout the campaign, but I don’t know if anything like that is in the works.

      Oh, I actually prefer that. While seeing rivals upgrade their cars would be dope, I'm glad it isn't an artificial scaling where if you upgrade, they automatically do too. I think it's actually better that there's a more objective progression where you can be better than former rivals etc. Although having a non-arbitrary upgrade process for rivals would be great, too. Like every now and again if rivals make enough money, they can upgrade etc. @@theangrymilitant Appreciate the info, too.
