Head to head is the only way
Level: Expert
Prize: 40000 dollars
As you've probably noticed by now, there are A LOT of difficult corners here. As a result, you will have to consider taking a slower, but more manoeuvrable car. I will only tell you about the most difficult turns, however you will have to stay focused all the time. You won't have any time to rest or plan your next movements. You will also have to watch out for heavy traffic! You will come across your first hairpin in about 30 seconds (#1). It's very important that you slow down here, so you won't hit the left barrier. You should be able to reach the second hairpin very soon. You will also have to be very careful there. There are some faster corners ahead (#2), so you should consider speeding up a little. Sadly, you won't be able to see where you're going, so try to stay on a correct right lane. Otherwise you would have probably crashed into something. There's no damage bar here, but you don't have much time to reach the finish line. You should be able to reach the top of the hill very soon. Keep moving forward. You will come across several other hairpins along the way (#3). Thankfully, you should be able to go through them without any major problems. Watch out for the small hills, though. I can assure you that you don't want to end up flying in the air. One of these hills will appear near the sixth checkpoint (#4). Use the brakes in order to avoid all obstacles. The final part of the race is going to be much more enjoyable.
Ring of Speed
Level: Expert
Prize: 40000 dollars
This is a very simple race. I'd strongly recommend that you choose a Chevy Corvette Z06 for this race, mostly because there aren't too many corners out there and you're going to need a fast car. You shouldn't have any problems with the first group of mild curves. Use the brakes once you've reached a tight left turn (#1). You will also come across more of these corners here, so be careful. There's also a left hairpin near the finish line (#2). Use the brakes if you don't want to end up on the opposite barrier. Nevertheless, you shouldn't have any problems scoring a victory here. Don't worry about the competition, especially if you have a Corvette.
170 mph on a winding route
Level: Champion
Prize: 50000 dollars
Achieve speed: 274 km/h
This is also a VERY easy racing challenge, however finishing it will grant you less money than you would be given for winning the 180 mph downtown challenge. Nevertheless, you shouldn't have any problems finishing this race. I would recommend choosing a car with an excellent acceleration. Dodge Viper (fully upgraded) seems like a good idea (you can't choose cars from the A class). You will have to go through a single hairpin (#1). Once this is done, start accelerating. I'd strongly recommend that you head on to the side of the road (#2), however this is quite risky, because there are some mild curves here. Either way, you should be able to win this challenge in about 20-25 seconds!
190 mph in heavy traffic
Level: Champion
Prize: 50000 dollars
Achieve speed: 306 km/h
I guess I won't surprise you by telling that this is also a very simple speed group challenge. As a result, you should have any problems winning the main prize. Once the race has started, turn around (#1) and head on to your right. Start accelerating. Once again, you should stick close to the side of the road (#2), so you won't have to worry about the traffic. You could also try avoiding civilian cars, however it would be quite risky. You shouldn't have any problems achieving 306 km/h, especially if you're driving a Dodge Viper or Chevy Corvette Z06.
The Narducci Loop
Level: Champion
Prize: 75000 dollars
Time limit: 4 minutes 15 seconds
I'd strongly recommend taking a Dodge Viper or a Chevy Corvette Z06 for this time challenge, mostly because you're going to need a car with an excellent acceleration value. This is a rather challenging race. You will have to deal with the damage bar, so you won't be allowed to hit anything along the way. The same goes with cutting through corners. It's going to be forbidden here. I wouldn't recommend losing any points, because you would have to deal with A LOT of penalty seconds. It's often wise to slow down, rather than lose the control over your car. You should have plenty of time, however you won't be allowed to make any major mistakes. Even if you're not driving too fast, you should be able to complete a single lap in two minutes. This means that you will have about 15 seconds left. You shouldn't have any problems with the first set of corners. You won't even have to use your brakes here. You will only have to slow down a little. Once you've reached a small hill (#1), hit the brakes. This is very important, because there's a very difficult jump here. If you would be driving too fast, your car would end up hitting a nearby wall. You will have to deal with several tight turns very soon (#2), however this shouldn't be a problem to you. Just make sure that you're driving on an asphalt road. You will also come across a small group of faster corners (#3). Try maintaining higher speeds, however staying on the track is equally important here. The final part of the lap will require you to go through a very difficult left hairpin (#4). You could try drifting here, however this can be dangerous.
The Infernal Descent
Level: Champion
Prize: 75000 dollars
This is a very simple race, at least in my personal opinion. Once again, I would recommend that you choose a Chevy Corvette Z06 for this challenge, mostly because you'll be dealing with a large number of mild (and easy) curves. There are some more challenging turns here (#1), however you shouldn't have any problems with them. You will have to watch out for a few jumps (#2), mostly because you will lose the control over your car. As a result, make sure that you don't end up outside the track. Other than that, there's nothing you should be worried about.
The Forbidden Fall
Level: Champion
Prize: 75000 dollars
This is also a simple race. Once again, it would be a wise decision to choose a Chevy Corvette Z06 from the list of owned cars. The first part of the race is going to be the most difficult one. You will have to deal with at least two tight turns here. Check the screens if you want to know exactly which corners I'm talking about (#1; #2). Once you've gone past them, you will be dealing with a lot of straight lines and mild curves. You probably won't make any mistakes here, especially since there's no traffic. I'll see you at the finish line! ;-)
180 mph downtown
Level: Champion
Prize: 75000 dollars
Achieve speed: 290 km/h
Can I have your attention? ;-) This is by far the most interesting challenge of the entire game. Collecting 75000 dollars will only take about a minute of your precious time and you'd have to try really hard to lose this race. As a result, I would recommend going back to this challenge from time to time, especially if you're collecting money to buy a new car or a larger house. You shouldn't have ANY problems reaching the required speed. I would recommend taking a fully upgraded Dodge Viper or Jaguar XJ220 for this challenge. The most important thing here is to have a car with an excellent acceleration. Once the race has started, turn around (#1). Now you will only have to start accelerating (#2). Avoid the traffic. Thankfully, there aren't too many civilian cars in the area.
