This first tournament was called by a bunch of ‘cocky newbies' who think they're all that. Time to show them otherwise. It consists of three two-lap races down at old Olympic Square. For the first time thus far, you do not need to come in first in order to win. The first race, as we would expect, is the easiest of the three, however, and as such, you should win it before moving on.
Given the scoring scheme for the tournament, winning two of the three races guarantees you the tournament win so long as you come in second on the third race. Win the first, and you're in good shape for the rest of the tournament.
The 2nd race is the same course, but backwards. If you didn't win the first race, make sure you win this one, or you'll have likely eliminated yourself from contention before even beginning the third race.
The final course is a new one, with the first appearance of ninety-degree turns. You can use this opportunity for monster Powerslides, if you wish, but don't give up the lead for the sake of Style Points. There's a new shortcut, as well, which appears on your minimap; cut through the construction site for extra hang time. There's a fairly long stretch of high-grade hills on this course - if your tachometer isn't near the red, be sure to downshift for extra power climbing them.
In the long straightaway before the end of each lap, fly close by oncoming traffic to garner some near misses, and be prepared to slow down and use your handbrake to make it through the extremely tight corner just before the finish line unscathed.
