How to earn more credits, tokens etc.

 * 1) Do so called farming - repeat your favorite, but also rewarding, single player race(s) again and again.
 * 2) Currently the best race for farming should be McLaren 675LT's MC 15 (Dubai Reverse) - it brings around 6200 credits in a race around 48 seconds (provided the player keeps winning).
 * 3) Other good farming races are, but are not limited, to Lamborghini Veneno's MC 15 (Alps, requires a flawless race though, 6000 credits in around 55 s) or Donkervoort D8 GT0's MAX Season 9 (5600 credits in around 1:07 m).
 * 4) Try to get a good farming car as soon as possible.
 * 5) The higher the Career season, the higher credit rewards from each race.
 * 6) You can try to achieve as much as possible from one farming racing by doing perfect races, stunts etc., but all these are just small bonuses when compared to the reward for the 1st place.
 * 7) Mainly when you decide to farm for a while, activate the "Double credits" boost which gets active for 24 hours. Of course, unless you activate this boost for free (getting it as a reward), you need to spend 100 tokens for it.
 * 8) When playing a Championship, you can leave completing the final races of individual tracks for the time when you've got "Double credits" activated.
 * 9) Twice a day, the game offers you to double credits obtained from a race by watching an advertisement. The offer is not made however if you achieve more than (todo: or more than / equal?) 6000 credits.
 * 10) Watch daily advertisements (the "Free" button at the home screen) - you'll get to free credits, tokens, MP licences or random cards very easily this way. You can watch maximally ...todo... advertisements in day.
 * 11) Provided that you don't have to re-invest them during your progress, you can get to interesting number of tokens from Championships (and possibly other types of special events) rewards.
 * 12) Achieve good times and positions in TLEs (Time Limited Events) - these offer various rewards.
 * 13) Complete daily tasks. Login every day to get a daily bonus.
 * 14) If a daily task is not the right for you (like achieving multiple knockdowns in a multiplayer race ;)), you can ask for another - it appears in 2 hours, or it can be skipped by paing 5 tokens.
 * 15) You can save lots of credits (or tokens in case of some cars) if you upgrade a car by using a free upgrade.
 * 16) If possible, depending on your financial situation, save the free upgrades for really expensive upgrades (like upgrading a car's top speed to the max level).

General tips

 * 1) Use your resources (credits, tokens, blueprints and pro-kit cards, MP tickets, free upgrades) wisely - prioritize your goals and try to achieve them efficiently. Spending resources on the right stuff as well as good timing is important.
 * 2) Claim your free upgrade(s) reward (e. g. for passing a mastery race or for completing a collection) only when you already exactly know for which car you are going to use it. Attention: Getting a free upgrade for saving a defined amount of points in MP cannot be postponed.
 * 3) Don't invest to useless cars (and upgrades). Those cars have no usage in TLEs, MP, in Career or don't belong to any collection.
 * 4) Always watch this wiki (or videos on YouTube, for example) - tips on every single new car and event sooner or later appear in here.
 * 5) When an event (R&D, Championship etc.) starts, there is always some time given for a player to actually start participating in it (by clicking "Participate" on the event). You can therefore postpone your start until the time you gathered enough information or resources for it.
 * 6) TLEs, but also other use cases: Avoid the time-synchronization glitch resulting in losing fuel when you leave the game for a while and start a race in an event - restaring the game is recommended beforehand.

Multiplayer

 * 1) see Multiplayer_League
 * 2) What matters the most: Use a good MP car and MP-tune it correctly.
 * 3) What also matters: player's skills, using boosters, achieved MP rank.
 * 4) The first days after a MP season starts can be harder for getting into your target MP league, because you will meet lots of other players which just level up back to their usual rank which you cannot achieve (yet) with your car (and/or skills).
 * 5) The higher the league, the better rewards you will get. You will also get more points for each race won.
 * 6) Can you see you are consistently ending at 1st to 3d place (or whatever the minimum position requirement in your league is) in your MP races? Then you can try to "Risk points" in order to get more points (and possibly also higher rank progress) in your next race.
 * 7) Watch the "x/4" label at the MP screen if you want to play as many MP races as possible for free. If "x" gets below 4, it means the game will give you more racing tickets for free automatically - 1 ticket in every 2 hours (todo: or less?). So if you have 4 or more tickets, you will already get no free ticket.
 * 8) When you're out of tickets, or in the short time between two MP seasons, you can play a "Free race": you can't lose, neither gain anything from such a race. This is ideal for trying out your new MP car-candidate.
