for those trying for the drift badge, the third stage with max accel and speed, just do donuts in any area close to large enough during the first lap: the AI will slow down and let you catch up over the next two laps, and you only have to finish before the timer runs out... I finished with ~30 seconds left and had 2200 drift. good luck!

After quite a bit of testing, I've found the lightness and steering upgrades to be useless. The car needs better handling/grip/traction, but lightness and steering both make it worse. It's like trying to steer a car on ice. The steering upgrade ought to make it better, but I tested it, and instead it makes it worse. I got to the sixth track, having fully upgraded the car much earlier, and after about six or seven tries I still couldn't beat the challenge for winning in 99 seconds--I was repeatedly off by a second or three. So I just started over a few times with different upgrades to see their effects. Turns out that with acceleration and speed maxed and nothing in the other two, I was able to beat the 6th track in 94 seconds the first time I tried, and in 92 the second. So, don't put any money into steering or lightness, and the game should be quite easy.

Driver: So what's the pay like. Owner: Well we don't exactly pay you, but we have randomly left money around the track so you just have to collect it as you go.

I hate that the game doesn't show statistics when you don't complete the race on time. Did I destroy 50 objects? Did I get 100 skid? Who knows!? Maybe statistics should be available DURING the race, otherwise you are totally blind. 5 times I finished with 1950 skid (give or take) before getting the challenge. Absurd.

getting 200ft longest skid on 5th was the best challenge - difficult enough to be challenging, but achievable through strategic thinking.

Left/Right arrows to steer, Up Arrow to accelerate and NO BRAKE control? Are you kidding me? There is a challenge where you are not allowed to hit any objects. There should be a brake. Just a suggestion.

stage 3 is the best (amongst 1,2,3 which i played xD) for the drift badge. just upgrade the 1st and 3rd upgrades and drift A LOT in every turn. when you reach the finish line go in the previous turn and start drifting. finish in the last seconds

It would be nice when going for a goal, to have your status (# of objects destroyed) on screen. That way it's much easier to know when you should restart, or when you should finish those last 2 laps. + if you want the creators to see this (and if you agree).

For the 200 skid challenge on level 5, the second right you take after starting is a wide area. Skid there and slowly tap and release the accelerator. You can easily get 400 or more in seconds.

For those of you wondering where the bananas came from, it's the monkey from bloons tower defence. He put down the bananas to slow you down and you're on one of his favourite tracks! Only that you're not a bloon...

Tip for 2000 skid: Skid whenever possible and use almost all the time you have. But keep in mind that you must finish the race to get the badge!

I got the drift badge on Stage 3 with Acceleration and Speed both at Rank 2. I went to the second lap and just did donuts banking off the walls in the bottom right. Finished with 9 seconds left and got 2200 drift points.

One of the "challenges" was not to let go the accelerator.. Did the programmers ever played flash racing games? WE NEVER LET GO THE ACCELERATOR!

ARE YOU KIDDING ME???

For all those wondering why this badge is needed for the zombie corpse carnage quest *cough* DarkCreature *cough* it's because the quest is promoting the zombie kill/racing game Blood Drive which involves running over zombies with a car.

Some advice for the "not hitting any object" challenges, try not to drift. Instead of holding the arrow key, just tap it a few times to turn normally. Also try to go behind other cars and let them hit the objects. Hope it helps and + so everyone can see!

The "Clean Race" Challenge is bs because the other cars knock traffic cones all over the place making it almost impossible to go 3 rounds without hitting a single one....

Finished the race with a skid worth 101 pts. Game says I got a total skid score of 2017. Achievement says my total score was 1917. Wtf

awesome game i don't think i have ever seen drifting in a top down racing game before nice job and the challenges add some extra playtime gotta love it 5/5. The only thing I would like added is a challenge counter so you can see your progress on challenges while you race.

For all people who think the challenges are hard just feel lucky that one of the challenges isn't complete the race without drifting

cool game :) enjoyed swerving around and bumping shit all over! few things to improve on though: stats could be shown while playing, or at least be checked on by pausing, so we know our progress for the challenges... also too much repetitive grinding for the sake of the challenges

Full howto for "destroy 40 objects" achievement: Cones and bananas don't count. There are 45 fences total so if AI destroys too many of them before you, restart the race. Drifting during first lap is bad, especially before the big fence roadblock which you need to destroy almost completely by yourself and still get to the next big curve with fences ahead of the AI.
