All -

I'm new to Trackmania, been watching some clips that pop up randomly and so wanted to try the game. I'm a little overwhelmed by the different types of flooring (ice vs dirt vs grass vs plastic?? vs something else), and some random mechanics like "reactor booster" popping up. I get there are techniques you're supposed to deploy but some of it hasn't been super intuitive.

Where do I go in game to practice on these different surfaces / understand the techniques I SHOULD be practicing so I don't develop bad habits?

I'm trying this game out on controller for what it's worth if that makes a difference.

Thank you!
