The steering in this game is super sensitive, so it is important to strategize when you are taking hard turns on the various race tracks in the game. When you are taking tight turns, first, slam the brakes right before you are about to go into the turn. Get down to a speed that will be slow enough that you can take the turn tightly, but quick enough that you don’t get passed by the other racers.
Once you are turning, start to bump the accelerator pedal a little bit, so that you can steer with the throttle slightly. This helps you get through a turn quicker, as long as you don’t hit the accelerator too hard or for too long a period of time. Once the turn ends, straighten out the car and slam the accelerator, take off, and roar through the straightaways. Repeat for each turn that you go into.
Also, with the front wheel drive cars, be careful with understeer (which is when the car doesn’t turn as hard as you want it to). Rear wheel drive cars have more of a problem with oversteer (the car turns too hard and does a drift or a power slide). Either one can send you straight into the grass or into a wall, which is devastating to your chances of winning a race.
