when u go into find a race

look to the far right of the screen and u will see a number like for example mine is 467/4

the 467 is an indication of how easy a race should be, now when selecting a race look for one that would be 100-200 less than yours, so i would look to race people between 367 and 267 give it a go and dont forget to upgrade ur car

Your better off to race people 150-200 points below you so say your rep is 500, search for people with rep around the 350 mark is, thats where all the money is to :P

You can search down the bottom of the page for other racers and for rep as well.

It may not be as flashy as some of the other other online games but the Simplicity of it I like and its still in development so it can only get better

Yeah its turn based, you get certain amount $ and 2 gallons of fuel every half hour, you cant borrow money from the bank, but you can deposit money into it and withdraw cash from your savings.
