Skill or Eskil?

Before you can drift train at high speed, you must be able to maintain control and race at high speeds. Therefore, Robyn’s next event is a sprint with some main streets and freeway combined. Tune your car for drift and upgrade its power and speed if you can afford it. It’s time to take it to the next level!

Objective: Race to the finish line and be the first across to win.

The first part of this sprint race goes through part of Burnwood. The streets are wide here and the few turns are easy.

As you approach the freeway, there’s a slight turn that goes right and then left. To take this fast, stay to the right as you enter, go to the left to take the first part of the turns on the inside, and then back out to the right at the turn to the left begins. This lets you take this turn with a straighter driving line.

The on-ramp of the freeway has a tight turn to the right at the start, so slow down before you start turning. Then there’s a hairpin turn at the end. Brake a bit so you don’t plow into the wall and, once you get around it, punch it when you get onto the freeway.

Drive as fast as you can on the speed run down the freeway. This is where you need to either get ahead of your opponents or stay out in the lead. Be careful not to crash into slower traffic—at this speed, a collision is severe.

Take the first off-ramp at Royal Park. It’s a tight 270-degree turn, so slow down before you start turning. You need to stay in control.

Once you get off the turn, floor it to the finish line and get there before anyone else.
