Source facts
How does the shifting mechanic function during a race?
You can shift between red and blue worlds using Q and E keys. Shifting drains your SHIFT meter, while staying in the BOTH mode refills it. Be careful not to shift away from the road you are currently standing on.
What is a recommended strategy for navigating the track?
Consider looking for signs at forks to identify shortcuts or boost pads specific to your current lens. Staying on a road that only your lens can see is beneficial because the SHIFT meter does not drain while you are there.
How does the Mono Run mode differ from standard racing?
In Mono Run mode, you race without the ability to switch between the red and blue worlds. This mode restricts you to a single perspective, unlike the standard gameplay where you shift between two worlds on the same road.
