I dont get it. I have been playin the game for about a week. Have had loads of car upgrades and won loads of races. I sold my Subura Impeza (which was about my 6th car i think) and yet i still cant buy any decent frikkin wheels.

I have loads of money but cant buy the wheels as they are 'currently locked'.
How long does it take to unlock the decent wheels??!!! I cant buy anything above 17s. Help! Thanks.

Im stuck on some nasty 6 lap endurance race. Is about race number 73? Keep losing on the last lap. The other cars seem to turn into frikkin knight rider on the last lap...

Whoever said the Supra is rubbish needs a smack round the head :)

Lovely once you get the hang of it.

There's a complete list of unlockables and the order they're obtained on gamefaqs.com

I've been playing the game for a while - not very long, as I haven't even reached Race 25 yet, but I have a few questions.

Is there a list that anyone knows of that tells you what gets unlocked when? It'd be good if I had an idea of what I can expect within the next, say, 10 races?

Also - what cars have you found to be best? I started with an MX5, then traded that for a Focus once I had unlocked it, and now I'm in a Hyundai Coupe, just because I like the way it looks - which car would be the best to use, at this early stage in the game?

I'm stuck on the same one. It is so damn hard, and I always use the NOS too early (after a crash) and regret it later. It is just too damn hard.

I have 9 races left.
One of them is a 7 lapper endurance race on the crappiest course in the game.

ARGH.

If you're still near the beginning of the game you don't have to use the e-brake, and sometimes it makes you go too slow to gain high multipliers. Handling really makes a difference in this race, and you'll notice such a big difference between the MX5 and, say, the Golf.

Accelerate off the line, get your speed up, turn left sharply until the car skids then turn right quickly to keep the skid going until your speed drops. Repeat.
