Hint: Atlantica shortcut:
Look for an opening in the wall approximately ten seconds after you pass the Atlantica Civic Center. Enter it to save about five seconds. Note: When you first enter wrong way message may appear, but will disappear after you follow the turns.

Hint: Empire City shortcuts:
Information in this section was contributed by Duet21.

The first shortcut can be found almost immediately after you start the race. The shortcut is on the left, just before you see the crane. There is also a street light almost inside the shortcut.
The second shortcut is just past the first left after the crane. You will see boxes on the right with small, blinking barricades between them. Run them over to get on the shortcut.
After you come out of the second shortcut there is a cement barrier directly ahead of you. Slightly to the left of this there are several flashing barriers, Go through these and follow the path. Be sure to turn to the left so that you can head in the correct direction on the track.
The fourth shortcut is located after you pass through the lighted tunnel and a row of pillars (the second long row of pillars you find). Immediately after you pass all of the pillars, go into the lighted area to the right. Stay in this area until the lights end. Immediately when the lights end, there is a discolored part of the wall with flyers on it. Run through the wall and you will be on the shortcut.

Hint: Quick start:

Hint: Stacked police cars:
Enable the "All cars, all standard tracks" code. Select hot pursuit mode and the pick the El Niño. Go into the hometown and try to outrun the police until they go back to create a road block. When they do, try to get close to roadblock. If done correctly, there will be police car on top of a other one.

Hint: Easy wins with a police car:
Choose any track and set it to eight laps. Do not chase after the cars. Instead, go backwards until you find a good narrow road and set a spike strip on one side of the road. Then, turn sideways on the other side and wait until someone appears. If they crash into you, turn on your siren; if they go over the spike strip, get as close to him as possible to arrest them. Repeat this until all of them are arrested. Note: If the road is not narrow enough, they can get around you.

Hint: Catch person easily:
Note: This works well when using the Pursuit Elino. If you want to catch a person in a car, use this three step process. First, do not turn on the siren. Second, catch up and get to the side of the car that you want to give a ticket to. Finally, smash into them and turn on the siren. This should put them into the wall and stop them by putting your car like the top of a "T" to the other car. Note: If you have the siren on earlier than the third step, then the opponent will drive faster and it is more difficult.

Hint: PIT maneuver:
Pit is a acronym for Pursuit Intervention Technique. In this game it is very possible to do so you could knock police or other rivals to get a lead on them, or you can make an easier arrest with it. follow these steps to initiate a PIT. Pull alongside the fleeing vehicle so that the portion of the your vehicle forward of the front wheels is aligned with the portion of the target vehicle behind the back wheels. Gently make contact with the target's side, then steers sharply into the target. As soon as the target vehicle's rear tires lose traction and start to skid, brake quickly while continuing to turn in the same direction until clear of the target. The target will turn in the opposite direction, in front of you, and will either spin out. Failure to move away from the target makes him a roadblock. Steer clear of your target as soon as the target starts to spin or you will not go anywhere fast.

Hint: NFS versions of cars:
When you are at the car selection screen in multi-player mode, scroll all they way over until you reach the Lotus Elise again. However this one will not be unlocked. Look at the names of the cars scrolling on the top and you will notice the letters NFS before their proper names. This indicates that they are the Need For Speed editions of the regular cars. The NFS cars are more powerful than the regular cars with lower 0-60 times, higher top speed, and enhanced suspension. The downside is that they cost twice to unlock than their regular versions.

While driving at night, press Up to turn on the high beam headlights.
