NEED FOR SPEED: U2 TIPS and HELP !
Strategic Driving:
Here I can help you with some strategies and tips to make sure you are the first to cross the finish line.
A) Nitrous reffiling techniques.
You don't have to buy a new bottle every time u run out of nitrous. In this game there are several ways to refill your nitrous gauge ( the blue thingy above your RPM indicator). It has 2 levels - first is a dark-blue color and the second one is a cyan-like color. You can do stylish moves that will get your gauge to second level at no time:
- Avoided accident -
Offers you 100 pts of Nitrous when you swiftly avoid colliding with another car, coming the opposite way. It is possible to get pts for avoiding cars goin the same way as you, but you need to be at high speed driving. These pts have a multiplying factor if the maneuver is performed correctly in a row. The multiplier can go as high as 5x.
- Clear section/lap -
Can only be made inside a race. If you drive smoothly, without hitting any guard rails or walls,, at some locations the game will reward you with 150 pts. This nitrous refill tactic also has a muliplier.
- Hydros/ bounce -
Can only be made with cars that have hydraulic suspension. Press and hold "H" and use someof the Arrow keys. Try adding some rhythm in your dance , for example: Down - Up-Up- Down .
You'll also recieve nitrous pts by bouncing with hydraulics: Press and hold the "J" key and use the Arrow keys.
- Reverse -
Driving backwards can ensure you some nitrous points. Depending on how long you drive without bumping into anything else, you recieve points accordingly.
- Drafting -
By entering another car's vacuum region, you are awarded nitrous-points, depending on how much time you remain in this region. To do this, stick to your opponents rear and watch your points increase. Surely, there are minimum speeds for an area of vacuum to be formed, so don't expect to get nitrous just by chasing a 30 km/h turtle.
- Lead lap/ Position gain -
Can only be done in racing events that involve either one or both of these.Every time you cross the start line as the race leader, you are awarded 150 points, multiplier-possible. Also, when you gain positions you receive points, depending on he position you got.
- Spray show -
If you purge some nitrous away from you, you are awarded nitrous points shortly after. To perform a spray show, simply press the N2O key while letting go on the gas pedal. Do not do it with the gas pedal down
because it will just speed you up, no spray show thingy. It's convenient to remember that if you modified your nitrous purge system, the N2O cloud that is dispersed will look different from one car to another.
- Power Slides -
By performing a power slide (a sort of drift), you receive points, too. Depending on how long you spent drifting, the points vary accordingly. Like the drift stages, if you touch a wall or bump into someone, the power slide reward will fall back to zero.
- 360s -
Basically, consists of spinning around drawing a circle in the ground with your car. Each 360 is worth 400 nitrous points, so they're definitely something to try.
- Head Start -
If your car's got enough horse power and acceleration, you may be rewarded with head start points quite often. Only supposed to happen in races, except drift.
- Burnout -
To do it, you can either push the gas pedal and hold, while in automatic shifting, or accelerate to maximum in Neutral position, then engage the 1st gear, while in manual shifting.Remember that it does not always happen, and by the times you perform it, it only happens once.
- Shortcut -
It happens when you, during a race or in exploration mode, find and enter a shortcut. Normally these feature different pavement and are quite a bit tricky to be found, but still do-able. You'll then be rewarded with 200
nitrous points.
- Hang Time -
You are awarded nitrous points depending on how much time you spent on the air during a jump. While in flight, "Hang Time" will be displayed and the nitrous points will begin to count, until you land once again.
- J-Turn -
This maneuver is performed by driving in reverse, then quickly performing a 180 degree turn, and accelerating forward. To do this, drive in reverse up to 70 km/h (don't let the reverse nitrous points begin to count) then turn you car around and accelerate. If done correctly, you should gain 500 nitrous points. Remember that 70 km/h is the minimum speed for the maneuver to be considered.
- Cleared accident -
By far, the less frequent. To make this maneuver, you are supposed to drive above an AI traffic car. The more cars you overfly, the higher your multiplier will be. Definitely some technique to watch out for, since you get 1000 points for each car you drive above.
Thats why u must put on the visuals that you can, even if that means to make a car out of carbon - its worthed , cuz you will get a call from a magazine and proceed with the game.

B) How to be sure that you doesn't stuck in the game
1. Keep your stars shining !!
Always try to keep your stars as high as possible. It is known that the magazine photo opportunities cause the game to keep going and new races to be displayed. Sometimes, one may not have many visual unlocks to equip their cars with; as a consequence, not too many choices to make, and very easily the car will
not look as the player really, really wants. But you're stuck in the game.
Thats why u must put on the visuals that you can, even if that means to make a car out of carbon - its worthed , cuz you will get a call from a magazine and proceed with the game.
2. To Unlock and procceed - get to the shop !!!
Always get to visit new shops as soon as you can. By visiting new shops, the game will unlock quite a few new parts for you. After a number of races, you should receive SMS messages telling about a new part or two. But going to new shops are also very important and must be considered as a high priority duty.Remember going to new shops especially when the computer gives you access to new parts of the city. Every new area has its shops, each one of them will bring you new parts.
3. Dissappearing stars - how to avoid them.
When you get called by a magazine to take pictures of your car or to show up on a DVD cover, a star will appear on the map as usual. However, there are cases that when one of these stars are displayed, and you decide to enter some race before taking the picture, the stars simply disappear. And that can be pretty damn nasty.
Give the stars high priority and get there as soon as you can.
4. URL's - The most important !
Not so commonly known to players is that the Underground Racing League events are quite possibly the ones of biggest importance. They are also quite attractive because of the payouts. You can earn a lot of money if you win. Plus, they are rather cool.
In order to finish the game, you have to complete all the URL events, PLUS you have to build a 10-star car. Only after that, and only then, you will be allowed to face Caleb himself.
