Personal tip:
When is the best time to race in the star competitions of Cars Race-O-Rama?
During the star races in Cars Race-O-Rama, you can collect 3 stars. With these, you earn accessories for your cars. It's best to collect these in the early rounds (if there are only 2 rounds to drive, of course, only in the first round).
You only really need to start racing in the final round. It doesn't matter how far behind you are (well, there are limits, but 30 seconds is no problem). You can easily catch up with the competition by using the turbo wisely and taking some flawless turns.
This will prevent you from having to redo races to collect stars!
Personal tip:
How do you make mega jumps in Cars Race-O-Rama?
With a good jump, you can get 250, 500, or even 750 points. More importantly, some stars can only be reached with a big leap during a "gold event." So... how do you actually make a big jump?
You might expect to jump at the very last moment and therefore need to time it well. Nothing could be further from the truth! You actually need to move the remote very early to make the biggest jumps in Cars Race-O-Rama. With a bit of bad luck, you might even jump over the stars, which of course is not the intention.
