[edit] Gameplay
The game is focused on the Career play, which involves several race organizations that host many race days. Race days are a set of races held at one track. Placing in a race earns points, and when your total points in a day reach a certain level, you win or dominate the race day. Along with additional cash prizes, you can choose markers after winning or dominating the race day.
Each race organization has several race days, each connected to each other in a web. As you win and dominate race days, locked race days connected to the ones you win are unlocked. The organization starts with one race day, a challenge race day, which provides cars at no cost to use. After winning, you can pick one of the provided cars as a prize. After winning enough race days in one organization, you are allowed to participate in the Super Promotion race day, which after winning, you are allowed to compete in the next race organization.
ProStreet is different from all of the other games in the Need For Speed series because of its physics engine. ProStreet focuses on realistic performance, and includes damage. Unlike most of the other games, braking is required for cornering and body upgrades affect aerodynamics, and subsequently performance.
The damage is divided into three categories: light, heavy, and totaled. Light and heavy damage affects performance slightly and greatly (respectively), and totaling your car ends the race for you.

[edit] Glitches/Bugs
All cars max out at 403 kmh/250 mph. (Powerful cars such as the Zonda F, Murceilago LP640, GT, R8 etc. will max out at this speed even though they might be in 5th gear).
Horsepower and weight are normally irrelevant factors in Prostreet. It is possible, through glitch-related tuning, to get a 475bhp Nissan 240s/x to outaccelerate a 1,001bhp Bugatti Veyron 16.4.
Using the reset feature to gain access to outside-of-map routes has been neglected. Through arranging barricades as a path, it is possible to reset, and to use this path to 'free roam.'
There are certain places on the Nevada Highway where the patching of the terrain features has not been completed. If driven over, these 'unfinished holes' can cause players' cars to fall through the bottom of the map.
The Blueprint Share feature can be used to override the protection on Collector's Edition Cars. For example, if someone who used the collector's Edition upgrade to buy a Bugatti Veyron 16.4 shares it with someone who did not buy the Collector's Edition upgrade, then it could be bought by the person who does not have the Collector's Edition, though it would cost 1,700,000 credits.
