How to unlock the Superior Sprint achievement in Midway Arcade Origins - Definitive Guide
*The first track is simple. Expect to lap your opponents.
*The next track is a little more difficult. If you overlap an opposing car when driving through the bottom left circle, you'll spin out. Try to avoid if possible. If the shortcut door is open as you are crossing the line for a lap, take it; your opponents will if they can as well.
*The last track is much tougher. If you don't get a head start fairly quickly, expect to lose. There will be random oil slicks and tornadoes as well, hopefully none of them will spawn in unavoidable spots. If they do, you may as well try again. The first 2 tracks are easy with practice, so it will really come down to getting practice on this track.
Overall tips:
*Avoid getting clustered with the other cars. It will slow you down and often spin you out to be facing the opposite direction.
*As long as you aren't going at top speed, bumping the wall is usually okay (although I had some random explosions at low speeds that made no sense).
*If you don't get the lead early, you may as well restart. Getting stuck behind all 3 cars will almost always spin you out as you'll be clustered with them.
*Don't stress over wrenches. I thought they were necessary and repaired your car, but their real purpose is for upgrades. Collecting 3 allows you to get an upgrade. If you follow the route I took, you won't even have 3 before you get the achievement.
*Upgrades seem to be useless, at least in my opinion. Other routes will allow you to get one before you get the achievement. They are: top speed, acceleration speed, and traction. You rarely get the chance to accelerate your car to top speed due to curves and the traction upgrade didn't seem to help with the controls at all. The acceleration one seemed to help a little, but not enough to stress over acquiring it.
*If an overpass has red outlines, you can drive off of it. Yellow means you can hit the wall and not fall off.
*Choose a different car! The cars always spawn in the same order on the tracks. The blue car (default) always spawns on the outside lane. I picked yellow (which spawns in the middle) and it stopped me from getting immediately rammed into the wall at the beginning of the third race since I was no longer on the outside.
If these tips aren't enough, I'm including a video of me earning the achievement to help out. Good luck!

Start with Track 8 (top left corner) It looks tricky, but the AI goes round it damned slowly... I lapped two of them on this one... You also get an upgrade for your car at the end of race 1 as you get the three scanners as a 'difficulty' bonus
It should give track 4 next which isn't too difficult either...
And then, the last track should be Track 1, which, even with the slightly upgraded AI should be a piece of cake...
Recap pick track 4
Followed by track 1
Ended by track 3
Personally, I found this to be the toughest of the 3 racing games. It is basically the same as Championship Sprint, however I found picking the first track given makes the final 2 easier. Use the same tips as you utilized in Championship Sprint in this one. Only major difference is (to me) it seems the 3rd race has MUCH more ruthless AI than its counterpart. Keep practicing, and after several tries, you should now be done with all the racing trophies! Huzzah!
A challenging one at race three but should take less than 5 tries, the controls are VERY touchy play with whatever is more comfortable for you, the stick or the pad.
You don't NEED the wrenches but it can help to make your car keep up just the little bit. I won two to three times over 10 races without wrenches Starting with the Right and bottom right most tracks, which I recommend using.
Much like super off road focus on just staying straight as possible and learn the courses every race won will put you ahead 3 tracks from the original track chosen. If you find it easier you may want to find the track that works best for you for your third race and just play under that pretense, this may involve you starting on the left side so you can end at the bottom right, play how you are comfortable and this will come in a few tries.
