Part 1 Campaign:
Start working your way through the 16 single player campaigns, making sure to replay the races until you get a full auto medal (meeting the required place, time, and/or wreck points). The time and place requirements are pretty self-explanatory (get first place/finish the race in under x:xx time), however some of the wreck points can be tricky. For these, be on the look out for rivals (they will have three v 's above them) and be sure to fire up everything in your surroundings for extra points when there are no enemies to shoot.
Part 2 Arcade & Single-Player Clean-Up:
There are 4 achievements that must be done in arcade. I suggest doing these after the campaigns (the Speed Kills one at least) to unlock the Class A cars. Start an arcade match in each of the four types for the achievements (Circuit, Point-to-Point, Down-and-Back, and Lap Knockout), set the AI Difficulty to Master and their cars to Class C. Play on whichever map you are most comfortable with, revolver was a favorite of mine. You only need to finish the races in 1st place, you don't need to get any specific medal on these. Now you should need no more than 9 more wins to finish off the 100 wins, so you can just run 9 arcade races set to Rookie Difficulty, if necessary. If you haven't gotten 1000 Kills, start up a Rampage match and just shoot up all the oncoming cars for quick kills.
Part 3 Multiplayer:
Get a friend to help boost these as the online for this game is pretty much dead (occasionally you may find one or two people on if you are lucky). Start a Ranked Match (it must be ranked to count towards the achievements) Circuit on Containment. Make sure that everyone uses the same car and a weapon set that includes mines (the default settings are: Jupiter for the car and Assault for the weapons, which is machine guns and mines. This is perfectly fine to use and simplifies things). Set up the cars so that they all drive straight in a line from the starting line off into the water ahead. Try to have a little space between them so that they don't bump and throw each other out of the loop. Have everyone drop a mine about a second after they spawn (if they drop it too early it will go behind the respawn point and they won't get a kill for it). Get both players to 10 kills (50k wreck points) and then run to the finish line. This is where the points max out for the match, so continuing on with the match after this point will just waste time. First and second place are the only ones who will get anything, so using 3 or more people is only going to waste time as well. With this method, it should take roughly 3-5 hours to finish the achievements.
Conclusion:
The game is straight forward enough but you need to find a boosting party to play online. As long as you follow the guide and the roadmap you shouldn't 'have any issues getting to 1000.
