This is a fast track with some very good lighting effects. There are many
 jumps which some you must take at varying angles to get the right line.
There are a few obstacles directly in the way like the ladder, broom and the
ground lights on the helicopter pad. I've always enjoyed this track as it was
 easy to learn and hard to be fast.

I have taken a few more pictures than usual as Rooftops is such a good looking
track. There are a set of overhead pictures towards the end as well.

Pic 1 : Roof 1 The Start.
Just floor it and jump over the gap from the end of the ramp.

Pic 2 : Roof 2
This is the next roof where you land from the jump. You must be on the
left side of the track but watch out for the bins just before the curved
roof against the wall. I skid to make the turn and hit the side as much
 as I need to.

Pic 3 : Exit From Roof 2
Here is the turn. Try to make as mush of the skid on the down ramp as you
will loose less time. As I said before hit the side if you need to on the left
and straighten up your car for the next part.

Pic 4 : Bumpy Roof 3
There are four humps on this roof

Pic 5 : Exit From Roof 3
Just a short jump here but do not forget you will be turning soon!!
Its and easy turn so get it right at top speed.

Pic 6  : Roof 4 , Two Turns.
This turn is the same as the first except you need to prepare for the jump.
You need to get your car on the far right of the ramp so you can turn in quicker
on the next roof.

Pic 7 : Roof 4 to Heli Pad Jump.
Stay on the right of Roof 4 exit ramp so when you land you can do a good
fast turn between the landing lights closest to the ramp.

Pic 8 : Heli Pad (Roof 5)
The skid marks in this pic show where to drive so you approach the exit ramp
as fast as possible. This is the usual route but I have on occasion landed so I
could turn and avoid going over the Heli Pad. I do not know if this is quicker
as I did not try to do this at the time it happened. The exit ramp is easy and
 you just need to do it as fast as possible. I go over at an angle so I do not
have to turn as much for the following turn.

Pic 9 : Roof 6
Just an easy turn and make sure you do the easy ones right. The only
way you could mess up is to hit the side of the exit ramp.

Pic 10 : exit From Roof 6
You can either turn more on Roof 6 to make the next roof and turn easier
or go straight for the corner of the ramp on roof 7 and turn  as you go
up the ramp.

Pic 11 Roof 7, 2 Satellite Dishes
I usually do a turn here to go up the ramp as straight as possible. I think
this is best as you will keep your speed up for longer and so be quicker.

Pic 12 Roof 8, The Ladder!!
As you come up the ramp you must turn to the left as much as you can, as
this will give you a wider, and longer ( and faster ) first turn.
The next turn you must prepare to make a choice quickly, as the ladder
approaches. I think it is best to do a wide turn so as you pass the
corner of the wall your car is straight so you can go under the ladder.
The alternate route is faster but the turn you do to go around the ladder
(on the left of it) is harder and you will hit the wall. This will prevent
you from making a fast turn. Try both!!

Pic 13 : The Ladder!
Here is a better view of the ladder and the following turn. If you can
turn enough you will be straight on for the next ramp and only a small
correction turn will needed as you go up the ramp.
See Pics 38 39 for the overhead view.

Pic 14 : Roof 8 Ramp Exit
As I said before you can if you do this right make this into a straight.
If you do this right you will improve you times a bit.

Pic 15 : Roof 8 Ramp to Roof 9
An easy one here just drive straight.

Pic 16 Roof 9
An easy part here too. Just drive over the humps and start to
steer to the left of this roof. As you near the end of this roof you need to
turn right. Go as fast as you can and bounce off the wall if you need to.
See pic 40 because the ramps here are not very wide.

Pic 17 : Roof 9 Exit
Getting this right will save you lots of time. Drive up the slope on the right
and do as little a jump as you can. Remember that the more time you stay
on the ground ( roof here ) the less time you will loose.

Pic 18 : Roof 10
Just drive straight here and line your car up with the middle of the track.

Pic 19 : The Last Jump, Roof 10 to Start Finish Roof
Just go straight here and only turn if you really have too.

Pic 20 : Roof 2 Alternate View

Pic 21 : The Wall on Roof 2, Cool eh!
