Master the final challenges of NHL 27's Part 10! Get expert tips and strategies for 'Start it Right?', 'New Beginnings', and 'First Time?' to secure those crucial wins.

Alright, we're heading into the final stretch of Part 10! If you've been handling the tricky turns so far, these last few challenges should be a breeze. Let's get you that boost you need to finish strong.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Challenge: Start it Right?
    • Driver: Dale Jarrett
  2. 2
    Difficulty: Bonus
  3. 3
    Description: Dale Jarrett won the first NEXTEL Cup race at Daytona in the Shootout. You'll hop into the UPS Ford with 2 laps left and need to take it to victory lane.
  4. 4
    Situation: You start sixth at Daytona with two and a half laps to go.
  5. 5
    Requirements: Finish first, stay in the top 10, stay on track, and no reckless driving.
  6. 6
    Strategy: If you found 'Turning the Tide' easy, this one will be a cinch. Just weave through the traffic. When it's down to just a couple of cars, use the slingshot draft to pull ahead and claim the win.
  7. 7
    Challenge: New Beginnings
    • Driver: Casey Mears
  8. 8
    Difficulty: Bonus
  9. 9
    Description: Casey Mears achieved his best career finish at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in 2004. You'll pilot his #41 Dodge, aiming for a 7th place finish or better.
  10. 10
    Situation: You start seventh at Las Vegas with five and a half laps to go.
  11. 11
    Requirements: Finish 7th or better, stay in the top 10, stay on track, and no reckless driving.
  12. 12
    Strategy: The AI cars are pretty spread out ahead of you. Your main focus should be holding off Tony Stewart, who's right on your tail at the start. If you can pass even one other car before the laps run out, you'll easily win this on your first try.
  13. 13
    Challenge: First Time?
    • Driver: Scott Wimmer
  14. 14
    Difficulty: Bonus
  15. 15
    Description: During Scott Wimmer's first Daytona 500, he was behind Dale Earnhardt Jr., Tony Stewart, and a lapped Kurt Busch. Your job is to pull away from the pack and get Scott the win.
  16. 16
    Situation: You start third at Daytona with three and a half laps to go.
  17. 17
    Requirements: Finish first, stay in the top 10, stay on track, and no reckless driving.
  18. 18
    Strategy: This challenge is pretty similar to others you've faced. Just weave your way past Busch and then use a slingshot draft on Earnhardt Jr. and Stewart. If you can catch a good draft on the front straightaway, you might even be in first place by the end of the lap.
Tips
  • Always keep an eye on your position relative to the leaders and the required finish.
  • Don't get too aggressive; clean driving is key to meeting the requirements.
  • Mastering the slingshot draft will be your best friend in these close-finish challenges.
  • Pay attention to the number of laps remaining – don't waste time in traffic if you're running out of time.
