Enthusia Professional Racing: Driving Revolution at a Glance

---

Let me introduce you to Driving Revolution in Enthusia Professional Racing.


^ from: (YouTube) - Enthusia Professional Racing has many Driving Revolution challenges ready to test your driving ability in a number of exercises. Are you up for the challenge?

Basics of Driving Revolution.

Each Driving Revolution level features these light gates you must pass through. You are judged based on how you are able to go into the gates at the proper speed. What you want to do is enter each gate at the proper speed. The indicator will turn green when it is at the perfect level. To that end, the line will adjust up or down based on how fast you are going. If you are going too slow, the bar will be low, and the indicator will turn blue. Conversely, if you are going too fast, the bar will move high, and the indicator will turn orange.

Other indicators feature those you must accelerate from and decelerate from. You will know to accelerate if you head into an indicator with a chevron pointed upward. This is the Acceleration Indicator. The Brake Indicator has a regular bar but two orange markers at the top and bottom of the indicator. You are fine as long as you are within limits of both acceleration and braking indicators.

Judging your for entry into each section is on a number of levels:

• Perfect - you entered the gate at the ideal speed.
• Great - you entered the gate at a moderate than ideal speed.
• Good - you entered the gate at a slower than ideal speed.
• Bad - you entered the gate at a very poor speed.
• Miss - you missed the gate entirely.

If you keep missing gates or don't acquire enough points through a run, you will not score very high. If you just score poor enough, the game will end. These are basically like License Tests. So keep a decent rhythm through each challenge. What you want to do is rack up as many Perfects as possible to get the highest score. To advance to the next stage, your DR Gauge must surpass the orange bar on the bottom-left on your screen. If you failed the stage, you can try again as the game will offer you advice on how to pass the stage you failed. You know you did everything well when you achieve an "S" ranking. Try to go for the "S" rating as best as you can.

Other Considerations.

Make sure not to collide into objects, miss too many indicators, or drive in the wrong direction. These actions will greatly decline your score for each stage.

Indicators may be wide or thin depending on where you actually need to be. Take note of this and make sure not to miss these indicators entirely.

How This Post Works.

You will see in the heading each level followed by various other information. An intro to the level will be provided followed by the car or cars you will use in each stage. The cars are listed in the order they appear in. If one car appears in different stages within the same level, it will be listed only once.


So allow me to introduce you to the different levels of Driving Revolution. Advance to the next section!

Enthusia Professional Racing: Driving Revolution

---

This section features all of the Driving Revolution stages. A brief overview of what you can expect is what I will mention here. I have passed all of these stages with "C" or higher. So I will mostly explain what you are generally supposed to do in each stage.

Level 1: Ocean Bridge.

Ocean Bridge is a very simple course. In fact- it's a straight line! What challenges await you are basic car control challenges. You can pass each of these tests with such minimal effort.

CARS USED: Toyota Corolla Luxel, Smart fortwo cabrio, Volkswagen New Beetle, Toyota MR-S

• Stage 1: Drive according to specific speeds. Standing start.
• Stage 2: Maintain a consistent speed through consecutive indicators. Standing start.
• Stage 3: Weave through a slalom-style course while keeping up your speed. Be careful not to hit the walls. Standing start.
• Stage 4: Weave through a slalom-style course accelerating at certain levels. Standing start.

Level 2: Cosmic Eggway.

Cosmic Eggway is a short oval course in a tropical-like setting. It has a pair of short corners and one set of long corners. This is a very basic course to learn the nuances of driving in Enthusia Professional Racing. Nothing too complicated is featured here.

CARS USED: Mini Cooper 1275S Mk I, Renault Clio Renault Sport 2.0

• Stage 1: Cross the indicators at a decent speed while making sure to keep a consistent racing line.
• Stage 2: Cross the indicators at a decent speed, and make sure to brake at the braking indicators.
• Stage 3: Note the speeds you must be in as you approach each indicator.
• Stage 4: Change lanes at fast speeds.

Level 3: Rev City.

You go from a basic permanent road course to a tricky temporary street course. Rev City

CARS USED: Daihatsu Copen, Toyota Vitz RS Turbo

• Stage 1: Go full throttle into a high-speed corner. Steering input is crucial.
• Stage 2: Same as the previous stage, but in a more powerful car.
• Stage 3: Take a jump and then try to clear the remaining corners keeping a consistent line.
• Stage 4: Same as the previous stage, but in a more powerful car. Some indicators are more narrow.

Level 4: Cosmic Winding.

You will be racing the road course of Cosmic Eggway called Cosmic Winding. After Turn 1 of the oval, you will enter a short road course configuration that will test your racing ability.

CARS USED: Peugeot 106 S16, Mazda Eunos Roadster S-Special Type II

• Stage 1: Try to direct your car into pairs of indicators side-by-side. Uses the tight first corner of the oval.
• Stage 2: With the final corner of the oval, direct your car through pairs of indicators and single indicators.
• Stage 3: Racing infield the road course, follow each indicator, including the acceleration and brake indicators.
• Stage 4: Same as the previous stage, but with Traction Control and Stability Control turned off.

Level 5: Wild West Enduro.

Wild West Enduro is a temporary dirt race course built within a baseball ballpark. To bat a home run in these challenges, you will have to learn driving on non-tarmac surfaces. Consider this your entry into off-road racing in Enthusia Professional Racing. It is also the first Driving Revolution levels where you will be driving race cars.

CARS USED: Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution, Peugeot 206 Rally Car 2000

• Stage 1: Race the second half of the course. Make note of the acceleration indicators towards the end.
• Stage 2: Same as the previous stage, but in a lighter and different-performing car.
• Stage 3: Race the first half of the course. The corners are tighter than in Stage 1.
• Stage 4: Same as the previous stage, but in a lighter and different-performing car.

Level 6: Tsukuba Circuit.

The only licensed race course in Enthusia you will race on in Driving Revolution is the Tsukuba Circuit. This circuit north of Tokyo in Ibaraki Prefecture is a short road course that has plenty of depth. The main challenge here is to learn the track sector by sector. Then, be ready to complete one lap around the course.

CAR USED: Toyota Altezza RS200

• Stage 1: Race the first sector of the track. A sharp corner, a chicane, and a slightly banked hairpin await.
• Stage 2: Race the second sector of the track. A sharp corner followed by some tricky bends and sharp hairpin await.
• Stage 3: Race the final sector of the track. The long, sweeping corner is too easy to misjudge. So be careful.
• Stage 4: Race one lap around the track.

Level 7: Tsukuba Circuit.

You will be racing again on Tsukuba Circuit, but this time under wet conditions. You also will be racing without TCS or ESC for any of the events. Proper car control is an absolute must for clearing each of the stages.

CARS USED: Toyota Sprinter Trueno 3-Door GT APEX, Toyota Altezza RS200

• Stage 1: Perform a slalom on a wet track in an low-powered car. Manual transmission.
• Stage 2: Race through Tsukuba's S-curve on a wet course. No TCS or ESC.
• Stage 3: Race the second half of the first sector of Tsukuba.
• Stage 4: If you misjudge the large radius of this section's curve, you will fail.

Level 8: Marco Strada.

This is the night version of Marco Strada, which is run on wet roads. Very much inspired by Venice, Italy; you will be doing a series of challenges to test your wet weather handling.

CARS USED: Mini Cooper S, Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA, Mazda Roadster RS-II

• Stage 1: Race the middle part of the track, which mostly takes place on the wooden bridge.
• Stage 2: Same as the previous stage, but in a more powerful car that is rear-wheel drive (unlike the front-wheel drive car previously).
• Stage 3: Drive through a chicane on down to the sharp hairpin leading to the Start/Finish line. Same car from Stage 2.
• Stage 4: Take on the chicane in a peppy sports car. Watch out for collisions or losing control.

Level 9: Autumn Mountain.

The beautiful Autumn Mountain track features a winding course through a village and several adjacent mountain roads. This is a really technical temporary course, so make sure to stay alert at all times on a track that can snap on you at any given moment if you are not careful.

CARS USED: Lancia Delta integrale Evoluzione II, Honda Civic Type R, Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG

• Stage 1: Race the first half of the track with a lot of indicators on the exterior of the course.
• Stage 2: Race the second half of the track with indicators on the exterior of the course.
• Stage 3: Race the final corner of the course with indicators are placed side-by-side. Concentration is a must here.
• Stage 4: Indicators are scattered everywhere and at different speeds. Concentrate and practice to get an "S" here.

Level 10: Edge of the Road.

Edge of the Road is a beautiful and exciting off-road course with tunnels and waterfalls. There are also a number of corners sure to keep you honest. Victory here will require a combination of off-road racing along with proper car control on non-tarmac surfaces.

CARS USED: Daihatsu Storia X4, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI, Subaru Impreza WRX STi Limited, Ford Focus Rally Car

• Stage 1: A tricky set of left and right corners await you along with elevation changes. Take them all properly to pass this stage.
• Stage 2: Go from a high-speed section down to some slow corners, all while keeping the car stable.
• Stage 3: Take on a series of hairpin curves while trying to maintain traction on dirt surfaces.
• Stage 4: Take on the jumps to this course while also properly navigating the corners in a proper rally car.

Level 11: Mystic Caveway.

Most of Mystic Caveway is raced on through a cavern. How you handle the many corners within this unique setting will determine success or failure. Take on these invidivdual challenges and perform to the best of your ability.

CARS USED: Nissan Elgrand, Daihatsu Storia X4, Mitsubishi Lancer GSR Evolution III

• Stage 1: Race the hairpin of this course in a huge rear-wheel drive van.
• Stage 2: Race through a section of many indicators leading to the Start/Finish line. Think ahead and plan in advance to clear this one.
• Stage 3: Most indicators are in blind parts of the track and near walls. Find them and adjust your speed to clear this section.
• Stage 4: Same strategy as the previous stage, but you are now dealing with uphill corners.

Level 12: Speediapolis Ring.

If you think the challenges will be easy since Speediapolis Ring is on an oval, think again! If anything, this set of challenges test your ability to keep a car stable under high-speed conditions. You will almost certainly fail if you go too slow around the course in any of these stages. So try to concentrate on maintaining high speeds throughout your runs.

CARS USED: Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am SD-455, Audi R8 Team Goh 2003, Honda NSX-R, Toyota Exxon Superflo Supra

• Stage 1: Race the second half of Speediapolis Ring in a muscle car.
• Stage 2: One lap around the track in a proper race car. Take advantage of this car's downforce and intense speed.
• Stage 3: Perform a high-speed slalom on the backstretch of this course. Know when to change lanes and keep a consistent speed.
• Stage 4: Race the first half of this course while also performing a high-speed slalom. Make note of where the indicators are.

Level 13: Burgenschlucht.

Burgenschlucht is a unique tarmac course with a rally racing feel to it. Winding country roads and some city streets are utilized in this uniquely European temporary racing course. This track is almost basically a tarmac rally course with its snaking roads. Enjoy trying to push the limits of both your car and your skills on this excellent course.

CARS USED: Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec, Honda NSX Type S Zero, Dodge Viper GTS, Lotus Elise 111S

• Stage 1: Take a tour through the village while weaving left and right going downhill.
• Stage 2: Part of Stage 1 shows up again, but you are now taking on some sharp corners and some uphill and downhill sections.
• Stage 3: Take on the high-speed right-hand corner followed by a sharp kink. Control your speed properly to clear the stage.
• Stage 4: Control a nimble car through a series of tricky corners situated on undulating roads.

Level 14: Wintertraum.

Some people have criticized that cars in Enthusia handle like they are on ice. Well, here is a unique Driving Revolution challenge- racing on ice and snow. Wintertraum offers icy and snowy roads for you to drive on. The course is kind of an icy version of Burgenschlucht but with different roads. Ice and snow have poor traction. So for these stages, you will have to try to navigate your way around on surfaces that have little or no traction. Thankfully, you will be racing a machine more than capable to take on these stages. Though it has the designation of WRC, you are not racing a World Rally Championship rally car in this Level. You are instead racing a street car with DNA of their successful GT-FOUR WRC Rally Car. These stages will be difficult, but not impossible. You will really need to focus and practice to get the best scores in these stages. In case you're wondering, this is the last of the off-road Driving Revolution levels.

CAR USED: Toyota Celica GT-FOUR WRC

• Stage 1: Perform a slalom on icy roads on the front stretch of the track.
• Stage 2: Downhill sections await. Don't lose too much speed or control!
• Stage 3: Both downhill and uphill sections make up this course. Find the best line and adjust throttle inputs to clear this stage.
• Stage 4: Use the indicators to devise a proper racing line around this large-radius turn section.

Level 15: Dragon Range.

You will be taking on Enthusia's touge track- Dragon Range in the downhill direction. Your ability to properly drift around corners will be paramount to success in these challenges. Even if you are not an adept drifter (I am not good at drifting myself), you will at least learn and practice techniques to become a more solid driver overall. Just like almost anything in life, take this set of challenges as a learning experience. The best advice for any of these tests is to try not to hit the barriers on either side of the road in these stages.

CARS USED: Nissan 180 Type X, Mazda Roadster RS-II, Subaru Impreza WRX STi Version VI, Mazda Savanna RX-7 Infini

• Stage 1: A weaving road with a series of indicators await. Keep the car stable at all times while adjusting speeds.
• Stage 2: Take on the high-speed section of the track while properly hitting all of the indicators at proper speeds.
• Stage 3: Try using the emergency brake to make tighter turns to tackle a series of three hairpin corners.
• Stage 4: The final set of corners await you. They are blind and in tricky locations. Drive carefully.

Level 16: Pacific Gateway.

Pacific Gateway is a challenging street course with elevation changes and tricky corners. You are racing around the beautiful city of San Francisco, California, USA here. Racing this track helped me to appreciate the beauty of San Francisco. While this urban course is beautiful, this track has some ugly sections that will unnerve you if you are not careful. The course has everything from technical corners to many elevation changes. You're going to get quite a workout racing this one! In a way, you can think of Pacific Gateway as Konami's answer to the Seattle Circuit of Gran Turismo games.

CARS USED: Ford Mustang Mach 1, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z51

• Stage 1: Take on the first sector of the course, with its blind corners. Be careful going uphill and making jumps later.
• Stage 2: The winding roads around a forested part of the track await. The section is blind and twisty. Go easy here.
• Stage 3: Go over a crest, into a chicane, then through a sweeping downhill section. Double indicators towards the end.
• Stage 4: From the final uphill, take on a twisty section that goes downhill and to the marina. Keep the car stable and in a good line.

Level 17: Löwenseering.

I call Löwenseering as the signature race track of Enthusia Professional Racing. You will be racing the Grand Prix style course, Löwenseering in a powerful race car. You will be given the 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning Team Goh Audi Japan R8 LMP from 2004. You will have to learn this track and this car on your own to clear all four stages. Oh, and if you fail, NO advice will be given to you at all. The assumption is that you have been taught all you can be taught, so it's up to you to clear all of the stages. Can you do it?

CAR USED: Audi R8 Team Goh 2004

• Stage 1: Complete the first sector of the track, complete with a banked turn and several sharp corners.
• Stage 2: Complete the second sector of the track, which includes a super-slow hairpin and the bridge.
• Stage 3: Complete the final sector of the track. This stage is both long and fast with many tricky corners.
• Stage 4: Complete a full lap around this course. "C" or better will be difficult, but keep trying!

HOW difficult? This video from another player demonstrate how nuts this challenge is, especially Level 17, Stage 4:


^ Enthusia - Driving Revolution - Level 17 Stage 4 - S RANK!!

Now YOU try and do that for Level 17, Stage 4 (or better)!

Level 18: Cosmic Eggway.

While the course is fairly simple, the challenges here are anything but. Each stage is done in Manual Transmission and with no Traction Control or Stability Control. Throttle, brakes, and transmission are not functional in any of these challenges. So what you are looking at is a test in car control. This set of challenges will unnerve you to no end. However, clearing each stage is not impossible. Even if you just clear a section with "C" or better, consider yourself adept. You're the absolute best if you clear all four stages with the "S" rank.

CARS USED: Mazda Roadster RS-II, Nissan S15 Silvia R-Tune, Caterham Super 7 Superlight R500

• Stage 1: Use the E-Brake to properly maintain the car while heading into the corner.
• Stage 2: Countersteer to drift through the indicators. No E-Brake in this one.
• Stage 3: Adjust weight while cornering to hit the indicators.
• Stage 4: E-Brake drift in this car, but be ready to gather it up again.


It takes a lot of skill to clear each stage, let alone with an "S" rank. Just keep trying and don't give up. Also avoid being frustrated. All this will do is further rack your mind trying to clear these levels and their stages.





I hope you found these little tidbits helpful. Happy racing! Thank you for reading! Take care and be well.
