I hold 2nd WR on another track, so I don't think I'm that noob... but still, handling is crap. it's based on drifts (a bit similar to canyon actually), but 1) drift doesn't end when your car and skidmarks go on one line, so once you start drifting, only luck or wallcrash will stop you doing it; 2) if driving by a wall, when the wall ends you'll automatically start drifting to the side where the wall was; 3) when you fullcrash (it happens all the time), you have to "repair" your car for in-game currency shit and restart the race (thanks god all in-game-purchases are free atm).
