Easy NOS recovery:
To get lots of NOS easily, when you are standing still hold hand brake (R1). Next, hold the gas then hold Left or Right. You should spin around and create smoke. This should give you 300 points instantly to recover turbo boost.

Wining an outrun
Once you have found an opponent to outrun with, get in front of the opponent and get in the lead. Get as far as possible until the distance meter has reached its limit. If the distance meter starts to drop, it indicates that the opponent is catching up. When this happens, do a handbrake skid and turn the car around. Go back the way that you came from. The opponent will follow you as you are the one in lead, but he will take time to catch up, giving you an advantage to win the outrun.

Taking a nice photo shoot
Once you are in the photo shoot area, press Circle, hold your handbrake, then rev the engine and press either Left or Right. The car should do donuts. While it is doing this, take the photo. This will give a smoky look on your wheels in the picture.

Pop a wheelie

Once your vehicle's Hydraulics have been upgraded to Level 3, if you are in a rear-wheel-drive vehicle, get your front end to bounce continuosly by double tapping and then holding the R1 button (handbrake) and pushing up on the Left Analog Stick a few times. You should now be able to release the R1 button and your RWD car (or SUV) should continue to bounce its front end. Having your transmission set to manual for best results, rev your motor all the way up and then shift into 1st gear. If your timing was right, your car will surge forward and pop a wheelie at the same time. Using nitrous once you shift into 1st gear will give you better results and may allow you to shift gears a few times before your car's front end drops back to the ground. You may flip over backwards if you take off too fast. With a front-wheel-drive car, simply get the rear hydraulics of your car bouncing and use reverse to pop a wheelie going backwards. You may have to rock your car back and forth by switching between forward and reverse throttle, but with the right touch, your FWD car should be able to do this trick also (going backwards of course), even though much less dramatic compared to going forward in a RWD car. You can have your car flip over in reverse also, or it may stand on its nose. This is not very purposeful, besides having other players (online) wondering how you popped a wheelie off the line. Sometimes you can "jump" other cars using this glitch, but during a race, you probably will not have enough time to go through all the steps. Worth a few laughs at least, and will keep other players (online) wondering.

Vinyl Glitch

When you get vinyls that take up all four layers of the vinyls, it takes off any other vinyls you had on before, but I found a way to keep your old vinyls along with the vinyls that take up four layers. Just simply pick 1-layer vinyls that you like. Leave layer 1 empty. Once you pick the top 3 layers, go to 'Install Setup'. Go back to the vinyls and pick the cool four-layer vinyl you like. Put it on layer 1, then go back to 'Install setup' You shuold now have a very unique vinyl. This could take a few tries.

Rachel's Car

Early in the game Rachel lets you drive her car back to the car lot right? Well when she says go to the car lot don't go.Keep her car for a while and race with it to have an advantage on the other racers due to her awesome car. You will win lots of money until she doesn't let you race anymore, then you can give her her car back. So use her car wisely as long as you can!

Winning Outrun Races

In Outrun races, before you start the race, take the front of your car and push on the back end of your enemy to spin him out. While doing this, you might want to start the race, just in case. This helps your chances of winning. Another way to help you win is to push your enemy into other cars.

Style Points, 9999+

First, go to a drift, it canh be in Underground mode, or Quick race. 2nd, when you get on the track, start the drift. When you get in the bounus zone, press start. When you un pause it, yo uwill have 9999+ style points.
