Help with a Physics Problem!?

A car at the Indianapolis 500 accelerates uniformly from the pit area, going from rest to 320 km/h in a semi-circular arc with a radius of 220 m. Determine the tangential and radial acceleration of the car when it is halfway through the turn, assuming constant tangential acceleration. If the curve were flat, what would the coefficient of static friction have to be between the tires and the road to provide this acceleration with no slipping or skidding?

I need help with it all, and a step by step process would be hugely appreciated because I'd like to know how to do it. Thank you very much if you can help!
