STRATEGY & TIPS FOR NEED FOR DRIFT

Watch which surface changes (dirt, water, ice) actually affect handling in this game, since not every title treats them the same way.

Brake before the turn, not during it, so you're already at the right speed when you turn in.

Look ahead to the next corner rather than at the car in front of you — reacting late causes most crashes.

Aim for a smooth racing line — wide on entry, tight at the apex, wide again on exit — instead of cutting hard corners.
