CAREER MODE
(CONTINUED)
Higher-numbered layers sit above lower-numbered layers—that is, if you have
a layer 1 and layer 2 on top of each other, layer 2 will cover layer 1. Here is
an example:
If you want to place a decal on top of a blue vinyl oval, you’d first create the
blue vinyl shape on a layer.

Career Race Types
Amateur Races
are single races, and the car restrictions aren’t very strict.
Specifications for Amateur Races are creative in their restrictions.
Point-to-Point Races
send you from one point to another along a turn-
intensive course in an attempt to beat your opponents.
Professional Races
have very tight, competitive specifications for the cars
that can enter.
Championship Series
races involve multiple races. For each series race, you
are awarded points based on your finish. You don’t have to finish first in
every race, but you do want the highest point total at the end of the series
of races.
Endurance Events
are extremely long events where pit strategy can be
important and the potential for earnings is greater.
Online Career
races allow you to compete over Xbox
Live against human
opponents, while earning Career credits and leveling up.
Next, you’d create a new layer with the decal.
The decal layer sits on the oval vinyl layer, because it has a higher layer
number. If the decal had a lower layer number, it would be hidden below the
oval. This is a very basic example—remember that each of the six parts of your
car has 100 layers, so your design possibilities are endless.
Layer Options
Within the
Layer Options
menu, you can copy, paste, insert, or delete layers.
You also have the option to copy all layers from one side of your car and paste
them on the other side of your car.
Copy Custom Design
You can copy your car’s custom design and paste it onto another vehicle of the
same make and model. This is very useful for Xbox
Live Car Club members who
want to have a unique design that designates their club.
