yeah. if you cant keep up with dani's ghost then you wont see the shortcuts he uses. Just before the five consecutive hairpins there is a little dirt ramp almost that you can use to jump across and skip two of the corners. this will save you 10 seconds easy. you can also skip the last corner by jumping off the birm backwards through the finish line. Dani doesn't do this and yet still has a fantastic time which is why he is god. I like the FD RX7 the best since it is speedy boi but a bit trickier to control. The 86 is great as well and so is the first car you can unlock from beating dusty desert on normal. Other than this you need to know which corners to drift and which ones to grip, but honestly on this course you should drift almost everything. Start the drifts early and straighten it out quick. Keep it clean and use my second shortcut to beat dani!
