Check any video about racing or a stream of someone racing. There's quite a few tips you can get from these, and it's also a lot faster when doing it in non-race conditions with items and stuff.
Tuco on the builds and gameplay and stuff, it does tend to be basic. A lot of people don't make use of all their slots though which I find very wasteful, there's plenty of fun situational abilities, but eventually at some point you put so much into making your main skill good(5-6link it, lots of passives, quality gems on it) that it becomes better to spam it in almost every cases over everything else, regardless of the build. Most of the rest becomes debuffs to increase your main skills and situational abilities.
Personally every build I make relies on at least 4 abilities. A main skill that is used to clear trash and potentially bosses(depends on the skills), a movement skill if possible(caster/archer builds tend to not have them but anything with a melee weapon I'll use whirling blade or leap slam), a totem generally to distract mobs but sometimes to add damage and a curse to round up the build. I'll generally add a secondary skill for boss killing if I have the room, a 2nd curse for defensive or offensive purposes depending on the first one and then traps, mostly fire trap but conversion trap is nice too, bear trap which also fills the single target skill niche, sometimes other stuff like raise zombie or spectre too. I solo though so I tend to need a complete set of tools to deal with all situations.
A lot of builds rely on basically 2 skills though, one nuke that does everything and one curse to increase damage.
