How to unlock the Gale Racer achievement in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed - Definitive Guide
This achievement isn't actually too difficult if you are a half decent racer.
Alot of the time the AI is all over the place,for example,the winner of the first race (say Sonic) will quite often place much lower down the table on the second race.
If you are used to games like Mario Kart,you should be okay getting this on your first attempt.
Just bear in mind the achievement for coming 1st on all Expert GP's as the game does not record anywhere what position you finished in, so make a note of which GP's you came 1st in.

wrong... the trophy's in GP mode have a tiny number on them stating what place you've finished. if you look hard enough you can see it, helps for the finish first in every GP on expert cheevo.

I expected Milki tea's comment to be helpful, but thus far I have not won all the GPs on expert and they all say 1 underneath. Now I am in the position of not having all the GPs unlocked and I can't remember which ones I have come first in (Wish I had listened to the advice to note my positions!). They really didn't think this through when they made this game!

Hello Folks,
Excellent tips all around here from previous guides. Acceleration mod being a great option... in my opinion... Sonic, Gum, Shadow are the most superior. How to check which GP cups you have gotten 1st podium, etc...
Now I'd like to add something that helped me "cheese" it a little bit for those struggling to beat the AI in EXPERT. This works for all "Race" types events including World Tour Races, World Tour Boost Races, World Tour Battle Races, Grand Prix Races... Basically any event that you are competing against all 10 other characters.
If you have a couple extra controllers (i have total of 4), hook'em up and join them to the game as guest. It basically removes 3 contenders off the race and I am not entirely sure why, but I was never able to fail at coming 1st place after doing that. I mean, the difficulty curve seems to be humongous after adding the 3 inanimate players split-screen and i cant really tell why... but the expert event becomes quite easy.
There is ALSO the added advantage that the three players you add to the event will level up a bit on each event, effectively allowing you to speed up the process of unlocking MODS that may help you get closer to 100% game completion. So make sure you do not add a STAR level character, and always add a character that can level up.
Hope this helps other with this game that can become a bit tough at times.

I was using 3 controllers and even that helped a lot.

Now if you've played the world tour on expert you'll know what to expect of these bots. They are tough, but not impossible. Use items at every opportunity, make sure you are always utilizing drift boost and make sure you always finish in the top three. You may be disappointed not coming first all the time but if you come in third and the opponent behind you on the board finishes eighth then it won't matter.
