Auctioning

The cost of every car you buy is deducted to your balance. At the end of the game, the player with the most money wins, so choose your cars wisely! Do not buy as many cars as possible because it would cose you too much. Do not buy your cars too expensive as well unless you really, really want one.

Before auctioning, ask yourself if your speed cards match the color of the car. You have no 6 or 5 speed lines matching this car? Perhaps this is not a good car for you?


The race

When you play a card, you will most likely move the cars of the others. So do not hesitate to move them through long paths, do not hesitate to put them into position to be blocked next turn. Likewise, pay attention to where your cars are.

If you manage to be the first to reach a tight turn and block the other cars, then the other players will need to move your car in order to advance. And as speed lines are played from the quickest to the slowest, there are good chances that other players will be forced to play a good card on your car.


The betting

Remember that you are not obliged to bid on your cars. So if you see that another player took the lead, you can still bid on them to get a consolation prize. Likewise, if you manage to take the lead, even temporarily and that other players bid on you, they have a good interest in making you win! So they will play good cards on you in order to maximize their bidding payouts. Oh joy!
