Area 1 Bosses[]
Ashigara Pass - What to Do / Not Do[]
Since the Area 1 enemies' level and combat power are low, Area 1 makes a perfect practice stage. Take this opportunity to learn about your car. Practice rocket launching and the timing to get excellent drifts based on the length of your car.
All goons are harmless even with their own bosses around. On the Area Boss Battle (read: Tohru), he will use 2 nitro tanks at the first corner exit and second corner exit. Shoot your first nitro tank right after start so he won't ever closing the gap due to getting overspeed while drifting. After beating Tohru, congratulations! You unlocked area 2, VS Battle, Manufactured-Based Battle, and weekly ranking.
Rewards are changed after v5.0 update. Therefore, all rewards are converted into Golds respectively for all enemies
Area 1 is also great for improving your car(s) and parts. You not only get order tickets from the bosses but if you're lucky, you'll get some sweet parts and cars from those tickets. Also, make sure you have the car you want to use for a while so you can take advantage of the affinity points you get.
