--FAQs--
Below is a list of questions I see a lot of on various message boards
as well as ones from emails, hopefully this will save some of you the
hassle of searching around for answers.
1. Q: I just started playing, what car do you reccomend first?
A: Check the "Vehicles" section of this guide for more info.
2. Q: I'm out of money, how can I get more?
A: Go to the Desert or Storm Drain sanctioned races, there is no
entrance fee and you can pick up some decent money for completing
them. Well, enough to get you back on your feet for a little
while at least.
3. Q: I see two cars for sale that appear to perform the same, what are
the differences between them?
A: Year is one of the major differences, also on cars like the
Celica, the Action Package which is essentially a factory bodykit
adds to the price. Special edition type cars, though they don't
have any performance gains over a similar vehicle, are more
expensive simply because they are special edition.
4. Q: How do I unlock [insert car here]?
A: Check the "Vehicles" section of this guide for more info.
5. Q: I can't get into one of the crew battles, where can I get
respect?
A: Go back to previous crew battles that you've done and try to max
those respect points out, also make sure to do it in the
sanctioned races as well.
6. Q: Why did one of my girlfriends leave and how do I get her back?
A: You can lose a girl if you are riding with her and lose a crew
meet series. To get her back, keep playing the Street Challenges
and she'll be with one of your opponents eventually. Beat the
person she's with and you'll have her back.
7. Q: What's this I hear about free nitrous?
A: There was supposedly a trick that you can do in garage where your
purchase total would come out to $0, but it does infact subtract
from your money as normal. To get free nitrous, when you are
just driving around the streets do drifts, jumps, or whatever
else to earn you points and this will (magically) add nitrous to
your bottle. If you don't feel like doing this just go to your
garage and buy a new bottle.
