Race #7: Chinatown Tram
Type: Sprint
Reward: Suspension - level 1 street package
It's a little longer track (about three minutes) and also first with so many shortcuts on it. The start is well known from other races - a little straight with a shortcut just after it (#1). Try to avoid colliding with your opponents while crossing the street! Then we have some 90-degree corners - the best way to get through them is like on (#2). Another important corner is this tight 180-degree reversal. If we don't know how to make through it properly, then it will be emergency braking or just hitting the wall. But you also have guides :) The method for corners like that is as follow - while entering it, drive close to its outside and then rapidly cut the corner in it's middle. In that way the kind of corners will quickly became friendly, especially, when we realise that we can make this manoeuvre with high speed. Then another 90-s await us, ended up with long left turn and at last some straight. After it we have a soft turn and pursuit breaker (#3), which we can throw on our opponents. The tight left will be next, but also an entrance to the shortcut, that generally doesn't make our route any shorter (#4). But its second part is worth looking. Few corners later we will encounter another two shortcuts - a "downhill" ended with jump (#5) and hard to see backroad leading us right, which let us to cup a long corner. Right before the reversion we will have another shortcut (#6) and then we will enter the "garden part", which we know from few other tracks. Now only some tight corners separates us from the finish... you've made it :)
