Try the designer: build a track and test-drive it as often as you like. Saving tracks and sharing their codes come with the full game. Until then the track you work on stays here, and it is saved for you when you get the full game. Starting from another track replaces it.
Which landscape does your road start in?
You can add more after it, so the road runs from one into the next.
The landscapes from start to finish. Open one to set its hills, bends and more.
+ Add a landscape
When you set off, how busy the road is, and the weather on the way.
How it shows in the track list: its name, and where along the road its picture is taken.
Director mode: one video that switches between cameras as the race goes, like a race on TV. One camera for a whole run soon gets dull; switch to the driver for a close overtake, the helicopter over a long bend, trackside as you flash past.
Go to a moment and pick a camera: from there on the replay and the video use it, up to the next camera you pick. Each switch is a tick on the timeline. Dashboard on or off goes with the switch you are in, and Remove position takes it out. A switch can also be a transition: the camera flies over from the one before, out of the driver's seat or into it too.
Keys: D director mode on or off, C the next camera, T cut or transition, X remove the position you are in.
