Steering
Pro Street is still an arcade game, although it leans towards simulation a bit. It doesn't, however, require as much attention (compared to simulators) while driving a car. Although seasoned drivers can make things more challenging by switching off all assistance options (ABS, traction control)
I also recommend using manual transmission, which gives you more control over your car. You have to use manual in Drag anyway.
Some tracks can be hard to win with a keyboard (which doesn't mean it's impossible). If you have a pad, though, use that. The best option, of course, is a steering wheel.
The more seasoned players have a clutch option available, although in an arcade game it's more of a pleasant and unpractical addition (which makes a difference only in Drag races).
Cars
Pro Street has a whole varied range of cars, both low and high-end. Each car has a use here (even the 16000 worth Toyota Corolla can be used to beat the King of Drift). After buying a car, you must decide what type of competition you'll use it for – this can't be changed later! Some cars are useless in Drift, here you'll have to rely on rear-wheel drive. As the game progresses, you'll need at least one car for each competition type. Some cars are absolutely useless for Drift races – use rear-wheel drive cars for this only. If your short on cash, sell the cars you don't use.
It goes without saying that Pro Street has a few gems which are, at once, the fastest cars in the game: The Zonda, the 911, the Ford, the Murcielago etc. while the truth is, with new parts and good tuning every car can be somehow useful.
Online
The game has a wide range of online gameplay possibilities. You can duel on different Race Days (even in Drift or Drag). What's more, you can create your own Race Day. You can also share car settings, send your records along with your replay clips and compare the results. If you have a lot of friends into Pro Street, the online capabilities will give you many additional hours of fun.
