Is there a guide to the best farming methods. I know with the addition of aftermarket parts drops, the performance parts drop may have changed.

I needed to know if someone could give methods they have used when farming. I try to log on my sister's account and race but I'm not sure if that works the same as having someone else racing with me.

I also don't care to walk back and forth between rooms at every start and end so I usually stop after two races. I know i'm lazy. Then when I race with someone it seems to take forever as well.

I played wow so i'm used to farming but there is always a known method and an easier method.

So I'm looking for methods like:

How many times in a row do you try to race?

Do you jump to different tracks instead of back to back?

Does the Tier of car seem to matter?

Do longer tracks seem to drop more than shorter tracks or sprint?

Do you make it and all day event or just a few hours?

I hope that gives you and idea of what I'm looking for.

I used to buy gold packs like it was going out of style but EA decided to change the tuned drop rate (why I don't have a clue). So now I don't buy and I want to just farm.

I may end up giving in but I hope to hold my ground this time.

Well, I'm new to farming myself. I've found that TE Event's "All In" (T1) and "Late Departure" (T3) are the best for me. I tend to do them several times in a row. Once I find a certain card that yields something, (example: middle card), I'll race that event a couple more times and draw the same card. Sometimes I win 2-3 things in a row, sometimes just 1 thing. I also found Waterfront Road to be pretty good, but it's drops tend to be more random.

Not sure, but Ive won some manufacture parts in Main Street, and for performance parts Diamond and Union or Verona Tunnel works for me, I just close the eyes and I do random clicks in the screen, really! Ive won some great parts doing that! but you must do it when the heart.

Small tip: The card you choose in end of race doesn't matter, theres same reward behind every card. ;)

My guess is that the higher level tracks give bigger rewards. But at present day NFSW is acting up strange and i dont know if this is a fact anymore. So what i do is what Jose said on top "random tracks" :P

Depends how is the part drop rate and thus its random

I prefer back to back

No

Not really.Actually its the other way round :XD:

Depends how much time I have....

Hope this answers all your doubts :)

I found something unusual on West park & Lion (don't know does it works on other track). After 1 part you won (especially if it's pro) another part drop after 3, 6 or 10 races at the same track. Because I farmed on that track a lot, it happen very often, not always. Only ONCE on that track won 4 pro parts in 11 races. :shrug:

something similar happened to me when they had the event thing when everyone had all the tracks, i raced on grey point and won like 5 parts in 10 races

Farming is cake.
If you search crazy romanian on Google, you'll find a video with mentally retarded driver. My member title has nothing to do with it. It's nothing more than a pure coincidence.

Recently it became cake. If you focus on a track with a friend for a whole day you will surly get many parts even some pro.

Hey thanks for all the input. I'm farming with my sister's account currently. I picked up t3 red pro brakes (improved) but it's a start. I messed up on TH so its back down to the low numbers.

Did that today and picked the card when it was highlighted. I won two race tuned turbos and 2 sets of aftermarket wheels on Spade Street.

here is my experiment:
- you just need 1 partner to farm
- for T1pro part: farm on "diamon union"(lvl 16), T2 pro part farm on "lions challenge" (lvl 29), T3 street part farm on" bristol & bayshore" (lvl 42), for pro part farm on" eagle drive" (lvl49).
- you will win 3 to 5 times ( depend on u and your partner) then your partner will win (3-5 times). take turn to win
- here is importance: if u farm for T1 part; tell your partner to race on T2 or T3 car; you will race on T1 car; then u win 5 times; then u change t2 or t3 car; tell your partner to change t1 car; then its your partner turn to win. its similar to farm for t2. For t3 farming; if its your turn; pick a weak crappy t3 ( like lambo lp560; audi r8; ford gt...) and tell ur partner to change strong T3 ( like 959, M3 or 911... ) and so on....

here is my tips for farming propart . i did that and i win 1 or 2, sometimes 3 proparts in my 3 winning steak!!
hope it will work for you guys! thank me if it works for u! :) peace!

and further more: just pick the 3rd card ( the central one) everytime!!!! dont pick other card!
if u win gold card; and u just keep winning 2500 cash or 1000 rep or slingshot or nos or juggernaunt, that is the sign that you are going to winning pro part!
