Races

You need to overtake all race participants

Standard races have very obvious rules, assuming reaching the end line at the top position. While initially there are only three other drivers, in more difficult races there are more participants and thus it is more demanding to win the race.

For standard races it is best to choose cars with balanced parameters, that is, which are both quite fast and quite durable. You have to reckon with the fact that other drivers (and probably also police), will try to stand in your way to the victory, trying to push you out of the road or relying on pursuit technologies. As for choosing the mentioned technologies for your car, it is worth to select ones that will make it harder for your opponents to properly drive and do not necessarily seriously damage their cars.

Time Trials

Other Racers to not participate in time trials and the only goal of this type of race is to get to the end line as fast as possible. When preparing to such races make sure to choose the car with best performance because even if you will get spotted by police you shouldn't change your priorities, just continue to drive without errors.

In order to achieve best results in time trial races, make sure to avoid serious crashes which end with your car being put back on the road, because you'll lose precious seconds in this way. Also make sure to but Turbo (pursuit technology) and use it on longer parts of straight roads.

Hot Pursuits

These events are more complex than previously described standard races and the main difference is that the hot pursuit starts at the very beginning of the event. A small facilitation is the fact that police cars try to catch all race participants, so at least till you reach the finish line you do not have to worry that they are focused only on your car.

Same as with normal races you have to aim at being at the finish line as fast as you can. In order to succeed in this race you should again choose a car with balanced parameters and pursuit technologies which can help you to disturb other race participants.

Interceptors

The distinctive element of these events is that they do not have a strictly defined route, because your objective is only to lose the police pursuit in the given amount of time. I suggest selecting cars with high durability and strength. The second parameter is quite important in initial challenges of this group, because you will be able to destroy a police car and end the event in such way. If, in turn, you would like to start a standard escape, then regardless of the challenge difficulty level try to do this quite fast, so other police cars won't join the pursuit, make it more challenging.

In completing Interceptor event you could need help of proper pursuit technologies. I recommend investing in one defensive modification (for example the one which block attempts to locate your car to dire EMP charge) and one typically offensive modification.
