Play as a Martian: Press Right, Left, Right, Up, Down, Left, Right,
Up(2) at the main menu (front end).
Mars track(s): Pause game play then press Left(2), Right(2),
Left(2), Right(2), Down, Left, Right.
Wide-angle mode: Pause game play then press Left(3), Right(3),
Up(3), Down(3), Left(3), Right(3).
Rigels track: Shortcut: There is a shortcut
where the tunnel full of water is located. When you enter, there is a
waterfall to your left. Go through it and you will be close to first.
Note: If you are going through it for the first time you will find a
Gold Brick.
The Berg's track: Shortcut: When you race The Berg, look out for
the hidden shortcuts on the track. One is hidden in the cave.
Rocket Racer track (Xalax, Grand Finale): It is best to avoid
the ramps as you can lose speed and control when you land. It is
better to weave in and out of all the ramps and barriers, keeping up a
constant speed.
Sam Sinister: On Dino Island, you will meet Sam Sinister. He
will use all the power-ups, but he can also be hurt by your power-ups.
If you defeat him, he will give you a much better engine that will
increase your speed. The easiest way to defeat Sam Sinister is to
destroy his car. Do not do this when he is near a Pit-Lane. Also try
knocking him off the large spiral.
Reigel: On Mars, you will race against Riegel, the head Martian.
He drives a giant mech with amazing shields. He cannot be hurt by
power-ups, but he cannot pick them up. This race is about pure speed.
If you defeat him, Riegel will give you a Martian shield generator to
make your car tougher.
The Berg: In the Arctic, you will be challenged by the Berg, a
large ice monster who does not even need a car. Like Riegel, he cannot
pick up weapons, nor is he affected by them. The Berg can create giant
ice stalagmites behind him, though -- drive carefully. If you defeat
him, he will give you super-grip wheels.
Big Rocket power-up: When you collect the Big Rocket power-up,
hold L1 when you launch it. Your car will be dragged along. Note: You
must release L1 before it explodes or you will receive damage.
Additionally, you cannot control what direction you are going to.
Brick Boost power-up: Use the Brick Boost to gain speed at
essential times in a race. The Brick Boost can also be used to correct
yourself if you are going into a spin. Also, if you use a ramp or a
jump, hold down Brick Boost as you land and to speed off without
bouncing along and losing speed. If it is a close race you may want to
save your Brick Boost for the last lap, where a sudden surge of speed
could win the race for you.
Vehicle add-ons: Vehicle add-ons are won by completing bonus
games and beating Bosses. Power is nothing without control, so do not
get too many Power add-ons without getting Grip add-ons.
Pit-Lanes: Do not forget to use the Pit-Lanes to repair your
vehicle when you are in a race. This is very important when you are
racing on Mars and Xalax where your car can get damaged a lot.
Shunting: If another racer is just in front of your car, it is
possible to knock them into a spin. Try bumping one of the corners of
their car.
Better control: While you are in the air, do not move the
steering -- when you land you will go into a spin. It is best to tap
the steering when you land to regain control. When you take corners,
tap the steering as you navigate the corner. If you hold Left or
Right, the car may spin (especially on the Arctic tracks).
Quick start: At the beginning of a race, you can avoid being
pushed around by other racers using a turbo start. It can give you an
extra bit of distance between you and the other racers. Press
Accelerate at just the right time. Learn how to judge when the lights
will change to green at the beginning of the race - try counting and
with practice you will get it.
