Styling the mini map
I currently have a second camera set to show the track and the car only for the mini map. here 
I would like it to show the road completely white and the cars as a simple colored circle. and have the track edges fade out at the end.
like here. 
How do I accomplish this ? please help
You could create an image well above the track that matches the tracks path. Have another image above every car (slightly higher than the track image) and put them on their own layer. The Image should be part of the car or be able to track it's location. Easiest to have it attached to the car.
Tell the main camera to ignore that layer and have the minimap camera only render that layer. Job done :)
Great idea :D, however it doesn't help me with the fading edges. How would you do that ?
Use a render texture and have an image with black round the edges and white in the middle.
I did something similar but with a hard edge for a tutorial on $$anonymous$$imaps before we got access to the full pro version of Unity. You'll want a gradient fill but it should work fairly similar
Old $$anonymous$$inimap Tutorial
Note that tutorial is out of date but the shader should still work with your gradient white to black image forcing only the white area to show through alpha.
