Hints, Tips, & Glitches

Realistic Daytona/Talladega Experience
To do this Choose any driver and go to either Daytona or Talladega (I perefer Daytona ) Then go to car setup. Put tire pressure to 60, rear spoiler allthe way up to 75, suspension to 100, and the gear ratios to 8. Now when you race, stay in the draft. But when you fall out of the draft, your car will drop back and lose speed, like the real deal. Cool huh?

Skin Change
Start a quick race, change all the available skins on the cars to your liking such as, all the looney toons, when your race begins all the car skins you changed will be racing with you. This also works on season mode. If you wait for the demo mode to kick in you can see them on that too.
