Neon Drift League: the corner clears everything
Neon Drift League clicked for me the moment I stopped chasing top speed and started chasing clean corners. The whole game is built around your drift chain, and once you're feeding the boost meter every turn, you feel unstoppable.
The trick is entry timing. Tap the brake a hair before the corner, hold your slide, then feather the throttle to keep the angle without spinning out. Panic-braking mid-corner kills your chain, so commit to the entry.
Boost is best spent on the straights right after a good chain, not hoarded. I kept saving it out of habit and finishing races with a full meter, which is basically throwing away free time.
Tuning matters too. On tight tracks I lean toward grip; on open circuits I bias toward power. Swapping setups per track shaved real seconds off my times.
It's arcade to the core, and I mean that as a compliment. Pure feel, quick races, and a ghost of your best lap always daring you to do better.
