⏱️ Early Game & Campaign Setup

- Pick the Celica: The Toyota Celica works best for early road and dirt events thanks to its balanced handling and speed.
- Avoid Autoshow Purchases Early: Don’t waste credits on regular cars. Free vehicles from campaign progress and Wheelspins are more than enough.

?️ Race Mechanics & Controls

? Economy & Wheelspin Farming

- Stunt Party Participation: Hourly public events award repeatable 110,000 credits—perfect for early accumulation.
