Selecting Series Awards
Series awards (i.e., cars) are not purely random. Press X when a silhouetted car has the large black circle flashing under it to cause that car to be selected as the award for winning the series. Timing is crucial, since the large black circle only appears under a car for less than half a second. If you are too slow, the next car to get the large black circle will be selected.

Easy money with memory card:
Two memory cards are required for this trick. After you have earned about 200,000 credits, purchase a car, such as the Mitsubishi 3000 GT. Upgrade it up to the max. This will leave you almost broke. Go home and save this car memory slot two, then return to the title screen and load your last game from memory slot one. This will give you your money back, and you can now go home and trade from memory slot two. That car that you just spent all those credits on will only cost you retail price.
