Tips
- Use a fast rally car (like Ford RS200 Evolution) for cross-country hunting

|---|---|
| Small | 1,000 XP (blue) |
| Medium | 3,000 XP (red) |
| Large | 5,000 XP (purple, hardest to reach) |
Strategy
- Use the fastest car you own for each region
- Look for run-up distance — many require a running start and a jump
- Use Rewind if you miss — try a different angle
- Check rooftops, highway signs, and mountain ledges
Fast Travel Boards (x50)
Priority: UTMOST. Smashing all 50 makes fast travel completely free.
- Tokyo City — highest density (elevated highway barriers, rooftops)
- Along major highways — easy to smash at high speed
- Near Festival Outposts — convenient clusters
- Hidden behind billboards — look for gaps
