These are very hard. I managed to pass the first 4 or 5, but they are extremely tight - Most of my times are less than 1 sec better than the 1st place requirement.

Best advice I can give, is replay, replay, replay. You must absolutely know the track, you cannot crash at all.

I have also found that drifting in most corners slows you down.

But, if it is a very tight turn, drifting is better than touching the wall.

Any touching of the wall will virtually guarantee that you won't get 1st.

So while this is an arcade racer, think of these as sim tracks - slow before the corner, controlled drift and keep exit speed up.

Scary part is, I think there are trophies in the later stages for beating developer times

I'll agree that most of them are really close, the only one I haven't won by less than a second was the first one at the Airport Terminal. However, you can still hit walls and ride along walls and still get the win. Sometimes drifting can't be helped, especially the one on Dry Docks because that car refuses to make tight turns. Most of them just take time to learn the track and what Power Plays go off when and where

Yes, there is. They are called Beat The Team and Beat The Team Revenge. They aren't in career mode but they are trophies for beating developer times.

for some reason i find these also very impossible. I have 1st in almost all other races, but can't finish higher than 2nd on all detonator races (by some miracle i won the first one)

I'll run a clean race, and closest i have ever got to 1st was still 4 seconds.

Is there a shortcut on these tracks im not aware of??

No on the detonator tracks there are no short cuts. The only one that has one is the Beat the Team challenge in quick play. And with the detonator tracks I found that when close to a detonation point to release the throttle a little so I could keep the car in a straight line. Because with full throttle the car is send swirving from side to side. So keep trying and get the feeling of the car youre using. Good luck!
