User blog:Guy Bukzi Montag/How to Combine Practising and Earning Credits

This blog post is primarily meant for beginners and serves two purposes:


 * Where can I find a lesser known track to practise?

Advanced and pro players may also find some tracks they weren't aware of.
 * Where can I earn the most credits while practising?

When I switched from BlackBerry 10 OS to Android I had the problem that all tracks of the following locations where completely new to me: Area 51, Dubai, Munich Subway, Patagonia, Rio de Janeiro, San Diego Harbor, Sector 8 and Tenerife. Furthermore I couldn't transfer my gaming process to Android, so I had to start from scratch. You know what that means: Hello Dodge Dart.

The problems were: You can practise many tracks with the Quick Solo Race option, but you don't get credits for it, and you can't choose Area 51, Munich Subway, Patagonia and Rio de Janeiro in this mode.

So I planned strategically and searched fo a way to practise the new tracks and earn credits at the same time. I wrote down credits and race times of tracks in a spreadsheet if they a) were new to me or b) rewarded a high amount of credits.

I only included flawless races if they rewarded an extraordinarily high amount of credits and if they weren't too difficult so you can play a few races without wrecking and being disqualified without credits. Unplugged races have the disadvantage that you get some experience but you don't know where the nitro bottles are, so I only included them if the tracks were very rare and/or if they rewarded many credits. Races of Elite cars were generally not included because the vehicle gets too slow after a few races.

As it's not realistic to calculate with the fastest achievable race times for farming purposes, the table's credits and time columns show average values taken from four races while practising or farming with the given tune.

As you can see from the table, an ideal beginner's way to advance fast would be getting the DS Survolt, the McLaren 12C Spider and then the Lamborghini Veneno. General advice for farming: Quit the game, turn your device to flight mode (no internet connection) and restart the game. Since the 2018 Spring Update the long reloading process between replayed races disappears, so the time from one race to the next is cut to 23 seconds regardless of the hardware. Be aware that the traffic pattern changes every time you replay a race offline.
 * The DS Survolt (class B, per hour, no engines required to pro) is a very good car for career mode, first multiplayer experiences and class B time limited events (TLEs),
 * the McLaren 12C Spider (class A, per hour, no engines required to pro) is capable of fulfilling most of class A career mode and TLE goals, and
 * the Lamborghini Veneno (class S, per hour, no engines required to pro) is an ideal class S starter car as well as a "real" farming machine. Although its Mastery Challenge 15 is a flawless race it's not too difficult and set in a well-known location (Alps).

Explanations:
 * No.
 * M 15: Mastery Challenge 15
 * 9 A33: Season 9, Class A, No. 33 (No. can vary depending on owned cars)
 * Vehicle
 * Lamborghini Veneno: Purchasable with Credits
 * Marussia B2 : Requires Blueprints to be assembled
 * Apollo Intensa Emozione : Can only be obtained by completing a special event (Championship, Research &amp; Development, Enduro Double Down)
 * Tune
 * 0000 6X3X: Short for max 0-0-0-0 pro 6-10-3-10
 * Average (⌀) ​per hour
 * Waiting time: 23 seconds, this is the minimum time a player has to wait after crossing the finish line when playing offline without loading screen (post-race animation, next, next, replay, yes, next, pre-race animation)

All values are without boosters, VIP bonus and double credits. They reflect my personal skills, the vehicles I own and their current upgrade status. I don't have the McLaren 675LT or the McLaren MP4-31 (both popular farming cars), so they are not included in this table.

The table is sortable; default order is by average credits per hour. If you are looking for a track to practise, sort by track and then by location. Further races will be added soon.
