Strategy[]

  • As mentioned in the Typical Opponents List, many drivers use fast road cars that can pose a threat on the straights and can be hard to manage a win with those circumstances. Anyone who is looking for a successful time should use moderately fast road cars around 350-450 HP (detuning if possible) and have Sports Soft or Racing Hard Tires to make up the time-loss in the corners. However, it's no guarantee that it will give the player a 1st place or podium position due to the sizable gap from the lead drivers on most of these races (excluding Tokyo East where the gap is smaller). Therefore, the players should rely on luck with the AI starting order manipulation to ensure they have a fresh take on aiming for the lead.
    • This point is most apparent in the race at Road Atlanta in where it's shorter than the other road tracks and can be very hard to pull off a successful winning attempt due to it lasting just 5 Laps.
  • Tokyo East is a wet-to-dry race and can be easy to lose the clean race bonus through car contact (except for wall riding). Using any of the Racing Tires is not recommended as it's not only very easy to slip up and hit a track barrier due to the Wet Surface, but the Tire Wear multiplier is set to 12x and is the only race to have Tire Wear enabled. The increased PP for the racing tires also does little to brighten the scene which explains why Sports Hard Tires and a car that is 450-600 HP is necessary since the track has a long straight.
    • In addition, fuel consumption plays a part too. It's possible to get a faster time without pitting which would otherwise be too hard to manage for cars with poor fuel mileage; especially electric cars.
  • Using a Gr. B or any fast car capable of using off-road tires will allow a mostly guarantee win at Catalunya.
  • Both Tokyo East and Catalunya have track limit penalties enabled with Catalunya being the most apparent of the two; this means the player has to respect the track limits properly to avoid getting penalized.
  • For Nurburgring GP, it's best to use the Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.8 AMG '71 with Racing Soft tyres as it has a strong acceleration and excellent grip as this track does not have a lot of long straights and drivers with fast cars will be constrained from the amount of turns that prevents high-powered cars from achieving any form of momentum.

Trivia[]

  • For the race at Tokyo Expressway - East Clockwise, it was not possible to lose the Clean Race Bonus in early versions of the game, except by passing an AI car during a yellow flag.
    • In version 1.25, the race's wall contact penalties were removed, but the tire wear was increased from 9x to 15x. The tire wear was changed again to 25x in version 1.31, before being lowered to 12x in version 1.49.
    • As of version 1.26, the player can lose the Clean Race Bonus with even the slightest bump to a rival car or a barrier.
  • The retail races originally had 40,000 credits for a race win prior to v1.11.
