Air Breaking
1. Air breaking
Landing smooth allows you to go faster. you can use the brake (down arrow) while in the air to stop rotating your car, and even reverse it a little. a landing smooth and level with the road is much faster.

Hands UP
2. Hands UP
sometimes a jump is just a little too far for the speed you have. Put your hands up (up key) while in the air to jump a little farther. This will also rotate you foward a little before it starts to level out.

-P.S. Pro Tip, some jumps can be landed smoother by doing a front flip, using up to start the flip, and releasing, then using the down key to catch it level with the next track!

Twisties
3. Twisties
okay, so the track isnt smooth anymore, try to keep to a lower more gently hilled part, this will allow you to land smoothly and snake around the twisties.

Corkscrews
4. Corkscrews
enter the tunnel with a slight turn, and let it ride!

Smooth Turns
5. Smooth Turns
Nice and easy, just stay close to the inside, and turn gently.

Sharp Turns
6. Sharp Turns
starting the turn as early as possible so that you almost hit the inside of the corner as you pass it. this gives you the most room to make the next turn in the opposite direction.

Tube Turns
7. Tube Turns
gently lean to the outside of the tube as you enter, then allow the corner to flow, and then leaning back down to rotate into the next corner.
-P.S. Pro Tip, you could also use the middle of the tube as a loop rolling all the way over to go even faster.

High Speed Tube Turns
8. High Speed Tube Turns
making this corner by turning is possible, but very difficult. try turning it into a corkscrew and rotate around the inside of the turn to make a loop. this is much faster.

Raised Bank Turns
9. Raised Bank Turns
Start from the low side and drive up into the turn, the follow the turn. If your not getting any air while making the turn you found the sweet spot.

Lowered Banked Turns
10. Lowered Banked Turns
while still going straight, move to the outside of the turn so that you fall into the turn without jumping. then find a smooth line to the next turn where you get no air time. After that get as low in the turn as you can to keep the speed up.

Sausage Block Turns
11. Sausage Block Turns
okay, these are technical turns, and need to be done very smoothly. start on the inside of the turn so you can use the hill to help turn a little sharper. then you need to gently rotate the car over the hill and lean into the next turn. some breaking may be required to keep the car smooth. This is a practiced skill.

Wall Rides
12. Wall Rides
take the smoothest line into the ramp, and stay as low and level as you can without falling off. some wallrides you will begin to lift off the wall after a short period. As long as you have enough height to fall and hit the next piece of wall, you will be okay. Then follow the ramp down to the finish!

Ramp Corners (quarter pipe turns)
13. Ramp Corners (quarter pipe turns)
turn as your going up the ramp, and dont undershoot the middle. pretty easy right?

Ramp Wallrides (quarter pipe wall rides)
14. Ramp Wallrides (quarter pipe wall rides)
a little more difficult, just follow the ramp in a gentle corner till your on the wall. try to to hit the corners of the ramps, that can mess you up good.

Ramp Jump Turns (quarter pipe jump turns)
15. Ramp Jump Turns (quarter pipe jump turns)
ok, this is hard. You need to get just the right speed, possible breaking a little. leading into a smooth turn. if your over shooting, your turning too wide. if your undershooting, your turning to narrow. if your hitting the inside of the wall, your coming off the ramp too soon. if your spinning out of control when you jump, your leaving way too soon. when you hit it, you will almost be wallriding and doing the 2nd half of the turn on the 2nd ramp. good luck.

Conclution
Hope this helped all the new players learn ways to be faster. I will be making a more advandced verison soon. But this should be enough to get you to finish almost all maps!

Happy Driving!

P.S. Video Demonstrations Coming Soon!

I still don't understand how to turn smoothly. If I tap left or right, it will slide and lose speed
