CSR2 can feel extremely slow when you are short on game cash or Elite Custom tokens. Upgrading cars, especially Elite Tuners, becomes frustrating if you don’t have a reliable way to farm resources. Instead of guessing or jumping between random events, I tested a few consistent methods that actually work.
This post is based on practical gameplay strategies I used repeatedly. These methods are not exciting, but they are reliable if your goal is steady progress rather than quick wins.
Fastest Way to Earn Game Cash – Regulation Races
The most consistent way I found to earn game cash in CSR2 is running high-tier regulation races repeatedly. This method is boring, but it works better than live races, Showdowns, or random events when you need guaranteed cash.
The key is to use the fastest car you own in the highest tier available. Higher-tier regulation races pay more, and faster cars reduce total farming time.
- Select your fastest high-tier car (Tier 4 or Tier 5 preferred)
- Open the map and choose the highest-paying regulation race
- Focus on perfect launches and perfect shifts
- Repeat the race after returning to the garage
Perfect shifts matter because each one increases the amount of game cash earned. Cars with more gears tend to perform better for farming because they allow more opportunities for perfect shifts.
On average, each regulation race earned me around 12,000–13,000 game cash. Over time, this adds up quickly. After roughly an hour of farming, reaching close to a million game cash is realistic if your car is fast enough.
Boosting Cash with Ads (Optional but Effective)
After finishing some regulation races, the game offers an option to watch an ad for extra cash. While this adds a few seconds to each run, it significantly increases total earnings.
In several cases, watching a short ad increased the reward from around 12,000 cash to nearly 20,000 cash for a single race. If you are farming seriously and want to avoid spending gold on fuel, this is worth doing.
Do Daily Races First (Before Farming)
Before committing to regulation race farming, it is best to complete all daily races first. Daily events pay solid rewards and don’t require constantly returning to the garage.
- Complete daily races
- Finish any quick event rewards
- Then switch to regulation races for farming
This approach keeps farming efficient and avoids wasting fuel or time.
Elite Customs & Elite Tuners – What to Focus On
When it comes to Elite Customs, not all cars are worth equal effort. From my experience, Elite Tuners cars offer the best value compared to regular Elite Customs or Legends cars.
Elite Tuners cars start with zero stars and can be upgraded to five purple stars by reaching Elite level 35. Along the way, you unlock body kits, tires, rims, and visual upgrades, making them both powerful and customizable.
Elite Token Requirements (Tier 5 Example)
For a Tier 5 Elite Tuners car, upgrading to the maximum level requires approximately:
- ~30,000 Green tokens
- ~160 Blue tokens
- ~4,650 Pink tokens
- ~200 Gold tokens
This might sound overwhelming, but it becomes manageable with daily grinding and patience.
Best Ways to Earn Elite Tokens
Elite tokens are earned naturally by participating in events across the map. The most reliable sources I found include:
- Weekly Elite Cups
- Showdowns (especially trophy milestones)
- Elite Tuners storyline events
- Daily map events with token rewards
Showdowns are particularly valuable because tokens are rewarded even if you lose races, as long as you keep participating and reaching milestones.
Patience Is the Real Strategy
One mistake many players make is trying to upgrade every Elite Customs car at once. From my experience, this only leads to burnout.
The smarter approach is to:
- Choose one favorite Elite Tuners car
- Upgrade it gradually
- Complete events at your own pace
Elite events do not disappear until you finish them, so there is no need to rush. Tokens accumulate naturally over time if you play consistently.
Final Thoughts
If you need game cash quickly in CSR2, high-tier regulation races remain the most reliable method, even though they are repetitive. For Elite Custom progression, focusing on Elite Tuners cars and completing daily events consistently is the best long-term strategy.
These methods are based on real gameplay experience and long-term grinding rather than shortcuts. While updates may change rewards in the future, patience and consistency remain the most important factors in CSR2 progression.
