Obviously, the tracks are getting trickier and trickier the more we advance into the campaign. #049 has a couple of tricky spots as well.
Already at the start, time can be won by applying a few tricks. Airbraking during the drop from the helicopter will help to get a smoother landing on the ramp. The resulting speed overdose is something which the mapper (obviously) couldn't predict, so you will actually hit the roof of the entrance if your landing was good enough.
The best strat is to have a good enough of a landing which allows you to jump just under the roof without hitting it. It's not something you can really control unless you found a reliable airbraking pattern (personally I've just randomly spammed the brake and hoped for a good landing xD), so don't be mad if it doesn't work in your first try.
After the start, there's another drop down to road and a right drift, where you can't really do much wrong. Another decisive part is coming up just after that.
Quickly after the drift, there's a tiny drop down to ground road which immediately leads into a very tight 180° corner to the left. That one might be a little frustrating at first since you have to slow down a lot in order to get through that U-turn. Once you've gotten a feeling for approaching that corner, it'll become easier to handle.
What I've done to get through that corner quickly is to use the small drop before it to turn my car to the right in the air. That way I'll land in a tiny drift. Now, you can quickly start countersteering and start the counterdrift to the left and use the momentum you've gotten from the tiny drift before it. That way you'll turn much quicker and you can keep more speed through the turn. It's surely an advanced technique and definitely requires practice, but it really does in come handy in this case.
After having cleared the U-turn, there's a couple of boosters which boost you through the long jump. The final corner might be a little tricky first due to the high speed you have there. For optimal speed, you obviously want to go for an outside-inside-outside approach and avoid steering too much because that'll result in speed loss.
