We will also go over how to build up your garage and get more of the currencies, so let’s get started with our Garena Speed Drifters cheats, tips and tricks strategy guide to win all races!

Drift at every chance you get!

The key to pulling ahead of the competition in Garena Speed Drifters are a combination of the drift and nitro boosts. The small drift boosts may not seem like much initially, but being able to pull them off often adds up, and soon enough you will find yourself pulling ahead of the rest of the racers. And of course, the nitro boost lasts for a substantial amount of time and boosts you very fast, which is always helpful.

It is important to keep in mind not to be afraid of drifting. Even a small tiny drift can generate some boost for you, and you do not have to be afraid of spinning out as long as you do not turn for too long. Try practicing this, and soon enough you will be able to pull off drifts on the smallest turns!

Use the small boosts!

There are other opportunities where you get to the small boost. Landing boosts will trigger upon landing from a jump, no matter how big or small. Flying boosts trigger upon getting big air, but be sure to activate it before you land otherwise you will miss your chance! Snap drift boosts happen when you quickly switch directions while drifting. Just be sure that you are ready to hit the boost button when they pop up – they do not last long!

Keep the shield item with you!

When playing Item Mode, you are gonna learn to love the shield item. The blue shield item, when activated, will absorb a single item hit from another player for you. When you pick one up, do not use it right away. Hang onto it until you know for certain an item is coming your way. Wait for the targeting reticle to appear on you, or look at the race position at the top left to see if something is heading your way, then use your shield.

Here’s a tiny hint: if you start to see pulsating waves coming off of you and pointing towards another direction, that means that someone has an item that can potentially target you. Wait for the right moment then use your shield!

Complete the daily missions!

There are three main currencies in Garena Speed Drifters: gold, vouchers, and diamonds. Gold is the most common, and you can use it to unlock new clothes and expressions, and a few cars. Vouchers are the next tier of currency, and they can buy everything gold can plus more, including exclusive outfits, cars, and boost items. Diamonds are premium currency of the game and they are used for special purchases.

Daily missions reward you with experience energy, and either gold or vouchers. Each daily mission you complete is worth activity points, and earning enough of those allows you to claim a reward.

Complete the main missions as well!

The main missions are a separate set of missions, and these ones will help you unlock new features of the game, plus they will help you figure out what you can work towards next. As you level up, you will unlock new main missions that will help you unlock new mechanics. Keep in mind that each mission actually has three steps to it, so be sure to complete all three before moving onto the next mission.

Outfit your car!

Once you hit level 5, you will receive a free rental car for ten days – the C-rank Assassin. This also introduces you to mods, which allow you to boost your car’s performance. You will need tech points, another currency of the game before you can outfit your car with mods. Tech points can be earned from the activity points rewards or from completing main missions. If you really want to get serious about racing, you will need to invest a lot into your mods!

How to get more cars?

Speaking of cars, you may be wondering how to get more besides the freebie rentals you get from leveling up. Not all cars in the catalog are available yet, but for the ones that are ready, you have to summon them through the supply boxes. You can get here from the Treasure button on the main menu.

Every time you open one of the supply chests, you have a chance to earn car shards. With enough shards, you can craft the car itself, and it will be a permanent addition to your garage!
