Part 2: The cars
Customize menu: here you can set the tire grip (from Grip to Drift), the
transmission (Automatic Transmission [AT] or Manual Transmission
[MT]) and the design of the car, from the team logo and name to
paint color
Customize menu, tire: here you can modify the grip of a car. From Grip to Drift.
If you set to “Grip”, it will be harder to drift and
setting to “Drift” the effect is the opposite. The
settings are five:
100% = 100% Grip/0% Drift
75% = 75% Grip/25% Drift
50% = 50% Grip/50% Drift
25% = 25% Grip/75% Drift
0% = 0% Grip/100% Drift
Customize menu, transmission: here you can change from [AT] and [MT]. The
Automatic Transmission is recommended for
beginners, but many cars have only the
Manual Transmission. The Manual Transmission is
recommended for the experts. With the [MT], you
can use a glitch called “Speed Glitch”

4A) Manual [MT] and Automatic [AT] Transmission: what is the best?
4B) For me is the Manual Transmission [MT] why it distributes the power and
torque better and you can change the gear faster and with the Manual
Transmission [MT] you can use a glitch called “Speed Glitch”
5A) What is the “Speed Glitch”?
5B) The “Speed Glitch” is just a glitch. For perform this glitch you must use
the Manual Transmission [MT] (why if you use the Automatic Transmission
[AT], you can’t perform this glitch). At the race beginning, rev your car to
max holding also the brake (Square in preset configuration) and when you go,
go to last or penultimate gear and relase the brake. If done correctly, you
will reach the top speed in less of one second, driving extremely fast. You
can use the glitch only when the race starts
