Time your shifts carefully. One of the best ways to do it is to watch for yellow on your tachometer, which indicates that you're about to hit the perfect green range.

If you shift too early, shift down again until you reach higher speeds before shifting up once more.

Deck out your car with vinyl and new rims it boost your prestige and that means more money at the end of each race.

Pay to upgrade your car whenever you can, so you don't have to rely entirely on your shifting skills to win races.
