I tried as many as 70 street races..no dice. I went into the quick race mode and i could choose it there though, but not move it on to the car(s) on the career mode.
One thing i like in the quick race mod is that you can choose any car you like, tune it to perfection and try it out there in a quick race. When you find which car suits you best, just buy it in the career mode and use it.
One thing i noticed the other day..don't just install the extreme packages when you unlock them..install parts individually as well. Some parts are owned but not installed and the game tells you if you need the part or not when you try to install them. It really helped the performance on my cars at least.
yes mackanz is right after u unlock transmission lvl 3 and install it, it automatically removed a part from package 2 which added about 7 mph to my top speed. i think they (EA Games) do this on purpose to keep us on top of our cars to maximize performance... they arent just handing it to us
i have a prob with nfsu2 that the road appears above the cars and the cars appear to be driving on nothing. i have a ATI mobility radeon 9000 IGP does any1 have any suggestions to fix this problem
Been reading through and saw "graphics are horrible" so i thought this would be a place for my post.
Ok i have just bought myself a copy of nfsu2 installed etc, but when i play the game i see nothing but the street lights and the lights off the other cars....the rest is all black. i am playing the game in default settings and have a 9800 pro gfx card with 4.6 catalyst beta drivers, a pentium 3.0
any help would be greatly apreciated.

I initially had the same problem and it had to do with a video detail setting option (the one below where you choose the resolution). I updated my drivers and it seemed to work well.
ok tried another Driver, and toggled with the detail setting. all good now.....it seems that i can only go so high with the detail settings on the game or i lose the grafix :S lol.
Thanks for ur help and ur speedy replys

Aha.... You're not the only one! One of my posts was edited when I mentioned the "K" word...
I have a problem as well.... I'm only just starting out in this game, and when I go to the place for the first drift race, after the cinematic I get kicked straight to the desktop. Do not pass go, just go straight to jail!
...It tells me there was an error blah blah report to Microsoft. I've tried reinstalling and even rebooting! Haha that doesn't happen very often as I fold 24/7.
EDIT: Also, the game can ONLY start in safe mode. I can put the settings as high as I like once the game's up, though. But I have to do I EVERY time I start the game!
I get the same windows error report crap when I try to start it normally.
hey.. how come i cant "outrun race" any more in free roam mode? is it cuz theres a limit to how much ass u can kick? maybe i have to finish all the required races to receive more opponents on the roads. but as of right now, it doesnt matter how far or how much i drive around, an orange triangle doesnt appear on my map... i did beat about 10+ guys... so do they come back eventually or what? thnx
hey black hawk... i know ur probably far in the game by now.. and a weird thing happened to me i was wondering if it happened to u too. after u unlock jackson heights i did about 12 races or so and then i got a text message from rachel and she tells me that she wants her car back.. so get to the car lot now!!!! so i go there and nothing happens at all... it seems i shouldve gotten that msg in the beginning of the game.. when i actually HAD her car lol..... weird..
That mesage was supposed to be delivered to you when you had her Porshe, but that's a huge bug in the game as far as i know. I got that message at level 5 =/

ahhhhhh!!!! im still stuck! my contract w/ sparco is supposed to be done! i did all required races, all optional, im sure all "cell phone 'yo theres a race at _______' ", and all URL... and i didnt get a msg telling me my contract was over and i didnt get any new races up... WHATS GOING ON EA!??????
yes i figured out the problem too... if anyone's in the same boat, all u have to do is:
1) open game status screen
2) scroll to the last page (right) and it will list a bunch of "objectives" for the region that u are in.. eg: mag covers, DVD covers...
3) accomplish these goals (usually build X star car)
4) one last URL will open up; win the race to move on to the next region.
i think EA should make this more clear.. as it took me about 2 hrs driving around looking for some hidden races that i may have missed.. it turns out all i needed was to make my 5.87 star car a 6+ star car and i would unlock the final dvd of level 4, thus allowing me to win the final URL and move on to lvl 5.
i need to know 1 thing if i was to buy a new car say a Hummer H2 would i lose my 240ZX or would i have both and choose which 1 i wana drive????sum1 plz answer this question for me.....

Do the Escalades, navigators and H2 actually sell with manuals?? I never thought that do, but they can be manuals in the game oO
