When you get higher rep, you will have the chance to get teir 2 and tier 2 cars. When you have the opprotunity to get these, do the races that give you the car you want, then once you have that car go for the preformence upgrades, they will help you alot more than going for the visual upgrades. Also, if depending on which type of car you start out with, you should stick with that kind of car for the rest of your carrer, it will help a whole lot.
Submitted By: Punk2Speedtrap racesActivate your Blocker/Brawler before the race. While racing and you are coming up to a speed trap, press Y. Your Blocker/Brawler will stop, crash the other car(s), and drastically slow down their time. Remember that the peak Blocker/Brawler moment is just before the speed trap.
