(so they do not take up too much screen) • Use the Turning Lines and countdown markers, they indicate when you are approaching a turn! • Letting off the throttle will allow the cars to rotate faster. • If you are pressing the turning buttons more than 1 second you are probably holding too long. • Make sure you can get at least 1-2 Stars in Qualifying before attempting Single Amateur Race.
