I've been running this game for a while now, and I'm still pretty bad at it. Sub 3 is definetily possible, here's a mission by mission guide for the any% category.

All missions should be done on the EASY difficulty!

You can start missions by getting a call or driving to a location on the map. You also need to be in the correct area (Autobahn, City) to start the mission on the specific location.

Begin the run by spawning in the police precinct (CITY). Proceed to the container harbor, the call for the mission will begin during the drive.

1. Flying Low, Part 1. Start: Container Harbor (Call) End: Business Center Car: BMW You can hit the "enemy car" that's hiding on the right on the first straightaway to cause extra damage. Try to destroy him before the first exit ramp and make your way to the business center.

2. A Day Off Start: Police Precinct (SET LOCATION) Car: BMW Just a regular checkpoint mission, without nos.

3. Hotte's New Toy Start: Mine Gas Station (SET LOCATION) Car: BMW for mission select Another race, few possible shortcuts, watch Brick's or my video for them. You have to do two laps, you need two perfect jumps. Use the first ramp of the lap, go roughly 130. Save nos for the final two straightaways.

4. A Speed Demon Start: Main Street Kiosk (SET LOCATION) Car: Alligator (Police) You should switch to the alligator that we unlocked in mission 3 since it's quicker than the BMW. Nos to the enemy and try to spin him. After he stops gently press your car against the front of his car, as he tries to drive away with roughly 1-2 seconds on the timer and he may reset it if he can move enough.

5. Finding A Hostage Start: Main Street Kiosk, drive to the industrial area gas station (Call) Car: Alligator (Police) Drive to the location to start the mission. You can do two useful resets to save some time, the construction and the hangar resets. Watch videos of the run for further info.

6. Poisoned Beer Start: City North (Call) Car: Alligator (Police) Wait for the call, drive to the marker, then make your way to the truck. Use the wrong way of the autobahn as it's the quickest. Make sure to save enough nos to pass the huge bridge jump.

SWITCH TO THE AUTOBAHN LOCATIONS

7. A Coffee Break, Part 1 Start: Stadium (Entrance) (SET LOCATION) Car: Ben B32 Just a straightforward race.

8. Alexei's Delivery Service, Part 1 Start: Precinct Rear (SET LOCATION) Car: Ben to start, will switch Drive to the junkyard, then the route given. Watch out for the construction jump, go roughly 130 to make it. Save some nos in case you don't make it and need it for a retry.

9. A Coffee Break, Part 2 Start: Precinct Rear (SET LOCATION) Car: Ben Drive to the first location, after that it's a highway checkpoint race.

10. MadCop, Part 1 Start: Precinct Main (SET LOCATION) Car: Ben Drive to the first checkpoint, then turn around and go back to where you started, as this is a chase you're supposed to fail.

11. A Coffee Break, Part 3 Start: Supermarket, drive to the castle! (Call) Car: BMW If you position the car well in the castle you can skip the entire driving segment. After that make your way to the warehouse, you will lose the car that's chasing you if you're quick enough. You can do a reset skip on the checkpoint segment with the Ben B32 (watch the run vid). The next few segments are pretty straightforward. Try to destroy the cars as quickly as possible-duh. The mission ends with an unskippable cutscene.

I will happily post the remaining guide if anyone wants it, just let me know! (:
