Thanks a lot, Tobias, bookmarked it, very useful. I already found out a few of them, others were new to me.

I didn't know it's called "wiggle-drifting", I called it "booty-shaking". :D But I also always wondered how pros like Damon can do it in such a precise, exact and fast manner – until I found out that he uses a keyboard. I find it much more difficult if you use the tilt mode with a phone, but I've been able to improve my booty-shaking a lot since then.

@ Swanging & Banging: Again: I started four months ago, and Patagonia was new to me. I don't know how I managed the Patagonia qualifiers for the Atom without mistakes, but I think they were a lot easier. Besides, one day before there was a cup for another fast car set in Patagonia, so I could practise at least one of the four tracks for the Atom. But today, I did not know The River Fort at all, and most of the shortcuts were new to me, too. Of course I paid attention to the lines Damon drove – but watching someone doing it and doing it yourself without having done it before are two different things.

I also wrote my comment in order to encourage the non-pro players. One should consider that many, if not most of the comments here are written by very experienced players. The tricks and hints they share are extremely useful, but if someone writes "Patagonia was easy", the average or new player has to ask her-/himself: "But also for me?".

Last thing: Yes, I did not skip any qualifier for the Atom and Buick Riviera. But I'm realistic. If I see that a goal is completely out of reach even after five attempts, and I do not have the possibility to improve my skills because the track is not available, I weigh up the price to pay and how important the car is for me.
