This time you won't have to visit any of the local car dealers, because you've already unlocked all cars. The same goes with the parts shop. The only exception is when you couldn't afford some of the upgrades before. Other than that, you may as well skip these actions. I'd recommend checking out Bull's car... that is, if you won it. Razor will require you to do following things:
1) Races won: 9
2) Milestones completed: 5
3) Total number of points: 10000000+.
Races:
1. Sprint - Hwy 2001
The first part of the race is very simple. You will have to deal with several mild corners. Be sure to use shortcuts along the way. You should also remember about maintaining a high speed, especially while moving on straight lines. Watch out for a challenging right turn (#1). You will have to deal with it in a few seconds. There are some more corners nearby. Thankfully, you should be able to cut through most of them. Watch out for some fast curves, though. They're very tricky. You should reach the freeway section near the end of this challenge. You might want to consider using the forest shortcuts (#2), however you will have to be careful, because there's a small jump here. You have to be very precise, otherwise you would have end up on the invisible wall.
2. Sprint - Diamond Park
Just as before, you shouldn't have any problems after the start. Watch out for some of the nearby tunnels. Don't hit any of the walls. Cut through most of the upcoming corners. After reaching the prison use the known shortcut (#1). Thanks to that, you should be able to extend your lead even more. Watch out for the police forces, though. There's a challenging left turn near the lighthouse (#2). DON'T try cutting through it. The final part is much easier. You will be presented will several mild corners. Don't forget about your nitro!
3. Sprint - Industrial & Bristol
There's a right corner near the start. I'd recommend slowing down a little, so you won't hit any of the walls. You will probably have some major problems with maintaining the lead. Watch out for a very tricky turn leading to one of the freeways (#1). Remember to use nitro from time to time. You will be presented will several junctions along the way. You should focus your attention only on maintaining highest possible speeds. There's a long tunnel with a very challenging left turn near its end (#2). You HAVE TO cut through it without ANY problems. Otherwise, you'd have to repeat the race. If you're not in the lead try crashing into one of the cars in front, rather than using the brakes. It's very risky, although you should be able to pull it off.
4. Tollbooth - Route 55 & Chase
All of the Tollbooth challenges from this group are rather simple, although you should know that they are very long. Use the known shortcut located near the start line. There are two other corners over here. Now you will have to deal with a series of mild curves. Watch out for a very tricky right turn (#1). You will have to use your brakes aggressively in order to pass through it safely. Watch out for the additional police forces. Don't forget about the possibility of using nitro. Avoid hitting other objects, especially slower cars. Another difficult corner will require you to make a sudden right turn (#2). Stay on the main road while doing that.
You will be encountering sharper corners from time to time (#1). Bear in mind that the police vehicles will be pushing you off the main road. You have to avoid their attacks at all costs. Once you've reached the industrial district you will only have to deal with several new corners. Thankfully, only a few of them will require you to reduce the speed significantly (#2).
5. Tollbooth - Petersburg & Camdem
First of all, you will have to go through several LONG stretches. You should already know by now, that the most important thing is to keep a high speed at all times. I wouldn't recommend using any of the forest shortcuts. Once you've reached the urban district you will also have to focus your attention on avoiding other cars. Additionally, watch out for the concrete pillars (#1). You should reach a very challenging left turn (#2). Be careful. There are more similar corners nearby.
Don't forget about the possibility of using shortcuts located in the industrial district. Use the lighthouse shortcut in order to gain a few extra seconds. You have to be careful. There are some narrow passages that you will have to deal with (#1). Don't hit anything while doing that. Next up is the refinery. Start off by using known shortcuts. Additionally, you will have to go through several tight corners (#2).
6. Speedtrap - Union Row & Seaside
I guess it won't be a surprise if I tell you that most of the speed cameras have been located near some very challenging corners (#1). You will have to concentrate all of your efforts on picking a correct route, so that you will be able to maintain a higher speed near that checkpoint. You mustn't forget about nitro, either! Few checkpoints are located in a middle of straight lines (#2). In these type of cases, don't forget to accelerate earlier. Activate the nitro once you've spotted the camera.
7. Speedtrap - Ironhorse & Bristol
Like I've said before, most of the speed cameras have been located in some very difficult spots. One of these checkpoints is in the industrial area (#1). DON'T use the right shortcut, because you'd have to slow down a lot. You can't afford that. Stay on the main road and concentrate on maintaining a decent speed. The second difficult camera is located near a series of very sharp turns (#2). You will have to be very cautious while going through the first corner. You might even consider activating the Speedbraker for a second or two.
8. Sprint - Bay Bridge & Seaside
There are some mild corners waiting for you here. You shouldn't worry about this at all, especially since you'll be able to cut through most of them. You may consider using the left shortcut and breaking through a huge billboard (#1), however this is not necessary. You should reach the freeway in a few seconds. Remember to activate nitro from time to time. You will also have to avoid bigger trees. The motorway exit is going to be very narrow, so you have to be careful. You will probably have some problems with fast curves located in the urban district (#2). Additionally, watch out for a very sharp left turn. The final part of the race is much easier. Remember to use known shortcuts along the way.
9. Tollbooth - Marina & Lennox
This is a very long run, however you shouldn't have any major problems with it. Be sure to cut through the first corner. Be careful, because there are more challenging corners nearby (#1). Avoid metal constructions. Hitting these objects would have slowed you down almost instantly. Furthermore, I wouldn't recommend cutting through the nearby corners. You should be able to reach the urban district very soon. Watch out for a tricky left turn (#2). You will have to use your brakes aggressively.
You will be able to reach the city stadium within a few seconds (#1). You've got to be very careful near its exit. Don't hit anything along the way. Make a sudden right turn. You should get back to the freeway. Focus your attention on maintaining a high speed (#2). You will be encountering some junctions along the way, however in most cases both paths will be equally interesting.
Milestones:
1. Trade Paint (220000 points)
This is one of the toughest challenges, although you should be able to complete it without any major problems. You will have to crash into at least 35 police vehicles. It's not that simple, because the pursuits will automatically jump to the fifth (highest) level. This means all sorts of trouble. You will be attacked by very powerful Chevy's. You have to be careful while trying to achieve this milestone.
2. Bounty (220000 points)
This is by far the most challenging milestone of the Career mode. Nonetheless, I'd recommend trying to accomplish this objective. You will have to earn at least 850000 Bounty points during a single pursuit. You can achieve this ONLY by scoring high-leveled combos.
3. Pursuit Evasion (220000 points)
This is a rather challenging objective, mostly because you will have to deal with extremely fast Corvette's, rather than usual police vehicles. You have two minutes to escape the pursuit successfully. You should concentrate most of your efforts on finding a good hideout. Once you've taken care of the police cars you have to use them in order to end the pursuit quickly.
4. Pursuit Time Challenge (220000 points)
This, on the other hand, is a fairly simple challenge, mostly because you will be trying to achieve other types of goals. You will have to maintain an active pursuit for at least 13 minutes. It shouldn't be much of a problem.
5. Photo Ticket (1360000 points)
If you've already gathered 10 million Bounty points you might want to consider skipping some of the usual challenges. Thanks to that, you'd have to accomplish three photo tickets and ONLY two other milestones. You shouldn't have any problems with the speed cameras, especially when you're driving a fully upgraded vehicle.
MAIN EVENT:
You were probably waiting for something interesting for the finish itself. Well, I hope I won't be disappointing you by telling that you will have to win FIVE different types of races. Just as before, you won't have an opportunity to get back to the garage while dealing with them. Otherwise, you would have to repeat all challenges. Some races are very difficult, however you should be able to deal with them after a couple of minutes of training.
1. Speedtrap - Warrent
This is a very difficult challenge, mostly because Razor's BMW (the same one he won from you at the beginning of the Career mode) is EXTREMELY fast. You will have to be very concentrated in order to score similar speeds. Furthermore, you should be waiting for him to make a mistake. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to win this challenge. The first camera will require you to drive at a MAXIMUM possible speed. Furthermore, be sure to use ALL of the remaining nitro. The same goes with the next checkpoints. You can't let Razor score too much MPH. Thankfully, there are some tight corners nearby. You should be able to take the lead here (#2), mostly because he will have some problems with scoring decent speeds near these checkpoints.
You HAVE TO use the left shortcut. Use the nitro in order to score a good speed near the camera (#1). You should be able to extend your lead. The final part of this challenge is much easier. You should be able to maintain the lead without any problems.
2. Drag - Terrace & Riverside
This is a rather simple Drag race, however you will probably have to repeat it a few times in order to memorize locations of the surrounding cars (#1). Watch out for two vehicles that will appear near one of the crossroads. You don't have to use any nitro, however you may consider activating the Speedbreaker feature from time to time. Be sure to keep a high speed, otherwise Razor might have taken the lead.
3. Sprint - Forest Green
You shouldn't have any problems with this race, however you will have to be careful near several tricky spots. First of all, you will have to deal with a few fast corners. After reaching the motorway exit slow down a little, so you will be able to pass through a challenging right turn safely (#1). You will find yourself in an industrial district. You should know this area very well by now. I'm talking mostly about the surrounding shortcuts. Use the tunnel located beneath the lighthouse. Be sure to block Razor's car, because he will probably want to take the lead somewhere over here. A series of difficult corners awaits you (#2). Remember to use nitro frequently.
You shouldn't have any serious problems with the following corners. Slow down once you've reached a tight right turn (#1). You might also try cutting through this corner. I'd recommend using shortcut located on your left (#2). This will require you to break through a billboard. The final part of the race contains a lot of straight lines. You have to use nitro frequently.
4. Circuit - Clubhouse
You should consider using the left shortcut, located near the start line. It's important, because Razor would probably do the same thing. The next shortcut will be located on your right. Watch out for a tight corner (#1). Thankfully, you should be able to cut through it safely. You can't slow down too much, otherwise Razor would have taken the lead. Use the LEFT shortcut. Remember to slow down a little, so you won't hit anything once you're on the ground. There's a VERY LONG right corner located near the finish line (#2). Watch out for the pillars, though. You should be able to get past them without any problems. There's a fast left turn near the finish.
5. Sprint - Clubhouse & Lennox
There are some difficult corners by the start. You should be careful near one of them (#1). Don't even try cutting through this corner, because you would probably hit the gas station. Once you're in the forest you might consider using the nearby shortcuts, however this is not necessary. Remember to activate nitro from time to time. Use the prison shortcut along the way (#2). This should help you to extend the lead even more.
Once you've made all of the necessary jumps you will have to deal with several VERY DIFFICULT corners (#1). Nonetheless, you should be trying to avoid any contact with the surrounding walls. Don't forget about the nitro and the Speedbreaker feature. Once you're in the industrial area you might start accelerating again, however you should be careful all the time. There are some new corners near the finish (#2). Try to maintain a decent advantage in order to secure the victory.
