Moonlight and Mountains

Robyn has had you drift and race. Now she has a touge for you, which is a combination of the two. Robyn is running it with you, along with three other drivers in the hills of El Rey. Win it by earning the most score by drifting. Get out in the lead to score more points.

Objective: Drift at the front of the pack and earn the most Drift Score to win.

Pick up speed and drift around the turn. Try to get out in the lead. Not only do you score more, but you also minimize the chance of hitting other cars as you drift. If you collide with another car or a wall or guardrail while drifting, you score nothing for that drift. Speed up and drift around the tight turn to get out ahead and score, as well.

Sprint to the next big turn. Try to get there first, then take this turn fast so you can drift a long way around it to score. Watch out for the grass on the inside and outside of the turn. Hitting it with your tires slows you down, so try to stay in the middle of the road to drift the most.

Do some drifting as you go left at the intersection, then accelerate so you have some speed for the wider turn up ahead. Since you may not be able to drift through this long turn, try to drift as much as you can at the start, then drift a second time to get to the end.

Do some drifting along the wide turns on the way to the freeway overpass. After you take a right at the intersection, hit the gas as you race over the freeway and then drift some at the fork in the road as you go to the right. Straighten up and drift around a tight turn to the left.

Pick up some speed and focus on racing until you come to a slight turn to the left. Take it fast, but don’t drift. Instead, maintain your speed and then drift around the turn that immediately follows to the right.

Punch it for the short sprint to the next tight turn to the right. This is one of the last chances to get a good addition to your Drift Score. There’s another turn to the left, but you won’t have as much speed as before and so you can’t drift as far. Build up some speed for the final turn to the left that takes you to the finish line.

Tip

Robyn calls and invites you over to her trailer in El Rey. She’s excited at your progress and looks forward to driving with you again in the near future. Wait for her next call.
