Gears and turns

Next to the current gear the car is in on the HUD you will occasionally see a red and sometimes flashing number This number is indicating what gear you should be in when you make the next turn Sometimes this is overcompensated by how you have set the gear ratios or the condition of the tires at the time but for the most part it is a pretty good indication of the speed you need to be at in order to make the next turn without hitting a wall

Quick start

At the beginning of a race except for Endurance Super License and others without a countdown do not rev your engine by holding X Instead wait until the countdown reaches quot1quot By the time it says quotGoquot you will have no white smoke from your wheels no wheelspin and a boost of about 02 seconds which may make the difference in earning the Gold Trophy in a license test or a quick head start as the CPU cars do not do this

Recommended tires

For any normal nonendurance race select super soft race tires They do not wear out on the track unless you see a tire meter on your screen For endurance races use the cheapest race tires Though the screen says they have the least traction they will have enough after about two laps to keep you going quickly Despite being the cheapest they are in fact race tires and work much better than any street tire You will benefit more by getting extra laps on a set of cheap tires then getting a few faster laps on the expensive tires which will need more frequent changes This will also save money

Selecting series awards

Series awards ie cars are not purely random Press X when a silhouetted car has the large black circle flashing under it to cause that car to be selected as the award for winning the series Timing is crucial since the large black circle only appears under a car for less than half a second If you are too slow the next car to get the large black circle will be selected



You can get unlimited F1 cars by playing endurance races as you can win prize cars from those races unlimited times To select a prize car press X when the black circle is under the car of your choice



To get the series car of your choice just race all the races in series mode not single Save before the last race Do not exit the series use the save function shown after the race is done Then start and quit the last race If you have enough points from previous races you should still win the series then continue to where they award the series prize If you get a car you do not want just exit the game go back to the title screen then load The game will start from the last race you saved at Quit the last race then continue onto the series and repeat until you get the desired car

Tire grip

When the tire meter appears in some races tires lose grip progressively and you must pit The less money you put into tires the longer the tire lasts in the race

Tuning drive trains

To get the most speed out of your car you have to get the most horses however sometimes the transmission will keep you from getting to use all of it Buy the Full Customization transmission Now go to the settings either right before a race or at home Change the settings of the last part of your transmission the bar that has Sports on the left and Wide on the right to all the way left This will move your individual gear ratios Next go to the quotFinalquot bar and move it as far right as it will go Then go to the next bar up and move it as far left as it will go Do that to the remaining bars When racing you will notice that your gears will shift extremely quickly however the bad starts will lead to every single horsepower being used This is really only needed in highpowered cars that exceed 650 horses and should not be used in short races with competitors having equal power to your own

Tuning race cars

The race cars you win can be tuned to go faster Always save the game before tuning or buying a car If you do not like what you get just reload

Use other cars when turning

You can use other cars as quotturning devicesquot As you know you have to brake a lot on certain turns If there is a car that is also turning directly next to you put your car on the side of them and keep driving If done correctly you will not have braked except sometimes for timing and the other car may have hit a wall

Wheelie

Note This trick requires a car with 230 hp or more Go to Seattle Curcuit 2 and drive over to the part of the road which goes down Accelerate fully all the way to the last drop Release the gas When you are about to go down slam on the gas You should do a wheelie

Zoom

At the car select screen you can hold the R1 button to zoom in on the available car If you hold R1 R2 you will zoom in even further this will demonstrate the amazing ability of the PS2 to quotpushquot graphics
