Hints

Wining an outrun
Once you have found an opponent to outrun with, get in front of the opponent and get in the lead. Get as far as possible until the distance meter has reached its limit. If the distance meter starts to drop, it indicates that the opponent is catching up. When this happens, do a handbrake skid and turn the car around. Go back the way that you came from. The opponent will follow you as you are the one in lead, but he will take time to catch up, giving you an advantage to win the outrun.

If you are in front of an opponent but cannot seem to lose him, head toward the center of the city ( the area that has the five fountains ). Once there, weave through the fountains. Your opponent will most likely crash into one of the fountains, giving you an easy win. Note: Practice going through the fountains first before you attempt an outrun so you do not lose your money. It is easier to do this in an SUV because it will not reach a high speed before you reach the fountains.

Find an outrun opponent then get right behind him. Draft him or her so that you can get a full tank of NOS, if desired. Then, start to spin out your opponent. You can do this by getting directly next to the car and turning into its back corner. While it is sideways or backwards, you can hit press [Up] to start the outrun. You will have a large head start because your opponent needs to turn around. You can win in under 15 seconds by doing this.

This trick requires that most of the city is unlocked. Get your car and get on the highway that leads around in a oval-like way. Challenge people on the highway for a much better chance of winning, since top speeds are better and there are less turns than the normal roads (so you do not slow down as much).

This trick requires a fast accelerating car. Drive to the airport where you first start the game, Next, find an opponent to race. While racing the opponent, make sure you get into the lead then go onto a little ramp the leads to a road just alongside the airport. After going down that road, you should be at an intersection where you can go left or straight. Take a left turn, then go straight down that road, which should be a parking lot. Once your opponent tries to catch up to you and gets close to the intersection, he will go straight instead of turning. This will give you a large lead and an easy win.

Start race with a full bar of nitrous. Come up from behind your opponent and draft until the nitrous is full, then do a tailspin maneuver. Do this by clipping the back bumper of your opponent, which sends them into the wall or in reverse. They will end up facing the wrong direction, giving you the advantage.

Find an opponent and draft behind them until you have full NOS (for backup, if you have at least a dryshot installed). When it is full, pull up next to them. Wait until you can challenge them, then start it. Then, ram your opponent at the rear tire. Keep pushing and to cause them to wipe out and stop, or crash into a wall. Then just drive off on a long straight road and use your saved up NOS. If you do not win it, you will at least have a very nice lead.

Drive up behind a car that is better than yours and hit it from the back . Then, challenge it and start to drive away. If the car is better than yours, it has better handling and will not take as long to get turned around and chase after you. This will encourage you to go at higher speeds and use more of your nitrous. Do not panic if you are going fast and are not very skilled. Just trust yourself and the car.

Use the following trick if you need to win the outrun modes for the unique parts. There is an easier way than doing it in the streets of the city. Get onto the highway of the main city (in whichever direction desired). Fill up your NOS gauge by doing near misses and avoiding accidents. When it is full and the backup is full (dark blue and light blue), find an opponent on the highway. Do not challenge any opponents if they are behind the concrete barrier that divides the road; only the ones on the side of the highway that you are driving on. Pull up behind them and position yourself for the tailspin maneuver by leaning your front against the opponent's side and back bumper area. Make sure you do not have a lot of your front and side on his back bumper, as you cannot spin him out if your too much on him. Look behind you from the outside view to make sure you are not too much on him (just a little). Then, accept the challenge and immediately spin him out, if you are successful, then hit the NOS. If you are not, pound the NOS anyway. You are still likely to win in about 5 to 15 seconds unless you crash. Do not go off of the highway. Repeat this process until you collect enough money and get the star for the unique item you need.

Original Need For Speed Underground drift races
Win all Street X races to unlock the drift races from the original Need For Speed Underground.

Easy drag race wins
Instead of using nitrous by holding it down and wasting it all at once, just keep tapping [NOS] as fast as you can. You will gain 1 to 3 mph with every tap, which is actually increases your speed faster than if you were to hold it down. Also, you will run out of it about one third as fast. Try this under the hardest difficulty setting.

In section 3 when you go to a drag race, take off the stability control. Note: You will be going so fast that you can get totaled.

Easier turns in URL races
Notice that before the sharp turns during the URL races, there are a set of numbers that countdown to 1. Follow those numbers to perfect your sharp turn into a groove to speed through faster. Keep accelerating until you reach "1", then slam on the brakes and turn. Once perfected, this can help you get through the turns with more speed.

In URL races, the CPU will try to spin you a lot. Whenever your car slides to an 30 to 60 degree angle, use your NOS and turn.

Some turns in URL races do not require brakes. Notice that the angles of some of the turns are kind of rounded. If you have the speed, you could go right into the wall and make the turn. As long as you are going about 130 mph and hit these certain corners, you will only go down to 100 mph or so. You have to experiment with the turns. Sometimes you will go too fast and flip, and other times you will fly through the turns going 100 mph while the CPU cars slow down, giving you some cushion time. Remember, you must get up against the wall for this trick to work.

In the first few laps, you will most likely be behind someone. When you are going on a turn, they will probably slow down. This is where you can turn the tables on the entire race. Do not slow down. Instead, keep going and use him as a wall to get the inside of the turn without applying the brake. As a bonus you may also get him to stop in an attempt to shake you, but this will only result in getting you a good lead. Note: You must make sure he does not ram you into the wall.

In the Underground Racing League, when you get to a corner, do not go in at full speed. If the turn is at 45 degrees or under, you have a chance of going in and just clipping the outside wall. However when you start the race, stay in the back and do not try to get to first place immediately. Make sure you stay fairly close to the cars in front. When you reach the corner, floor the accelerator and put in full throttle. If done quick enough, you should see the cars about to turn the corner. At this point you should just be close enough to clip the rear left or right bumper. Because the CPU cars slow down on the corner, you do not necessarily need to. When you go into it, the car in front will act as a guide around the corner. Go round the apex of the corner and slowly release the Analog-stick, and keep on the accelerator out of the corner to get into third, second, or first place.

If your using a very fast car with manual transmission, you do not need to brake when you get to a 90 degree corner. For example, if you are in fourth gear and are doing about 200 kph, just shift down to second gear. This will lower the speed to about 100 kph, then turn. Note: Tune your suspension so that your car does not slide easily, which will lower your speed even more unnecessarily.

On the airport courses for the URL races, after the long straightaways or any turn, do not use the brake. Drive along the wall and let the outside boundary do the turning for you.

URL parts
The best way to tell how many parts there is to a URL is the number of laps. Three laps indicates three parts of one URL. Four laps are only two parts, and five or six laps is only one run, but the CPU is moderately harder to race.

Finding hidden shops
Look at road signs around the city. They often have colored shapes (yellow triangles, etc.) to guide the way to the shops. Also, look for street-lights casting a colored glow. This indicates that there is a shop very close.

Finding more races
If you cannot find any more races on your map, then you need to find all the hidden shops in the city. After you find all the shops, you will be asked to be on another DVD cover. Follow the star to get to the next level. Note: Use the shops map featured below.

If you cannot find any more races on the map, make your visual rating on your car at least six stars or more. After you are done with the rating , Rachel will tell you about a photograph to take. Then after the picture you must do the URL. More races will appear. You will also unlock level 3 parts if you find the shops.

NOS purge and hydraulic use while driving
Go to any shop. Drive under the entrance projector and bring up all sides of car or bounce any desired side. Then, purge your NOS and while still holding [NOS], press [Up] to enter the shop. When it shows your car entering the shop, you will be purging and bouncing while driving.

Taking a nice photo shoot
Once you are in the photo shoot area, press [X], hold your hand brake ([R]), then rev the engine and press either [Left] or [Right]. The car should do donuts. While it is doing this, take the photo. This will give a smoky look on your wheels in the picture.

Easy style points
Driving in reverse will give you style points. The longer you drive in reverse, the more points you will receive.

To do this, you will need at least level 1 hydraulics. Drive up against a wall and activate your hydraulics. Then, press the gas and stay up against the wall. You may need to turn sometimes to keep it straight. You should start to get points on the right side of your screen.

Get a set of hydraulics (level 2 recommended). Come to a complete stop then hold the hand brake. Keep on pressing Analog-stick [Left] and [Right] or [Up] and [Down] and your points should keep on increasing.

Easy drift points
Some of the downhill drift races have houses with looping drive ways that you can drive in. Drifting in these driveways gets a lot more points than on the street because you are so far off the road and are not hitting a wall.

Go into Quick Race mode and select the Subaru Impreza with all Extreme or Level 3 performance parts. You may style the visual as desired, Then, choose Drift Track 6 and 10 laps with easy opponents. Drive through the middle of the track. When you are just before a corner, press the handbrake. Release it after you have slightly slid. Your car will soon almost spin and will drift through easily. Continue through the rest of the track by swerving on the straights and using the handbrake properly on the corners. You can get about 50,000 to 500,000 drift points at the end of the race.

Final race
The final race is against Caleb (the man that tells Nikki to win, then she loses and joins your team) on a 4.5 mile track and 5 laps. However, he only gets up to about 130 mph.

Hydraulics
After you buy level 1, 2, or 3 hydraulics, come to a complete stop and hold [R]. Use the [Analog stick] to move up, down, left, or right. The longer you move back and forth, the more points you will get.

To activate your hydraulics, you hold the gas, the brake, and the hand brake. While holding those down, move the Analog-stick in the direction which you want the car to move.

Rear wheel drive wheelie
This trick requires a real wheel drive car with level 3 hydraulics. Start with your car in neutral. Double tap then hold the [R] to engage the hydraulics. Hold [Analog-stick Up] to begin bouncing the front end of the car. In mid-bounce, release [R], but keep holding the [Analog-stick Up]. The car will keep bouncing. Press the [C-stick] [Forward] to rev up the engine, then shift into first gear, while still holding [Forward] on both of the Analog-stick and [C-stick]. Your next hydraulic bounce will be delayed in the air while the car does a rolling burnout, causing your car to do a wheelie. This is great for showing off for the cover shoots of magazines.

This trick requires level 3 hydraulics. Tap [A]x2, then hold [A]. Press [Analog-stick Forward] while still holding [A]. Release [A] while holding [Analog-stick Forward]. Release the Analog-stick and the car should still be bouncing on its front wheels. If so, hold the [R] to accelerate and the car should pop a wheelie for about 10 to 15 feet.

Get car on either side of the wheels
This trick requires all of the level 2 upgrades, and hydraulics upgrade level 2. Get the hydraulics to either side of the car, and only that one side. Then, do a donut to the right if the left side of the car is lifted and vice versa. This only happens for a moment.

Endo
Get any car and put level 3 hydraulics on it. Put on level 3 brakes. You can also use all level 3 engine parts to make it go higher. First, put the rear end up. Then, bounce the back. Next, go about 17 mph (or faster) and hit the brake. If done correctly, you could have the entire back end of the car straight up.

Front end donut
Install level 3 hydraulics and bounce the back end of your car. Then, begin to do a donut. After you do about three donuts you will start to do them on your front two tires.
