- TIPS AND TRICKS -

* Hidden Cars : Hold View 1 or View 2 at the car selection screen to access two sets of hidden cars. Hold View 1 + View 3 to access a third set of hidden cars.

* Alternate Car Color : Press View 3 at the car selection screen.

* Hidden Tracks : Hold View 1, View 2, or View 3 at the race selection screen to access the Hawaii, Africa and Australia tracks.

* View Credits : Press View 1 + View 3.

* Jump over Cars : To jump over a slower moving car or one coming at you, pull a wheelie right before you hit it. If you do it right you should still be pulling a wheelie when you hit the car you are jumping over and will not crash.

* Wheelie and Turbo Boost : To pop a wheelie and gain some acceleration, double-tap the gas while driving. NOTE : If you're playing in Manual mode, you can also do this by switching from fourth gear to neutral and back.

* Ride on 2 Wheels : To race on 2 wheels, double-tap the gas while turning a corner.

* Back Flip : When you are going up a hill, do a wheelie at the top.

* Side Flip : Do a wheelie while turning, then press in the opposite direction of your turn to flip on your side.

* Honk your Horn : While racing, press Start to honk your horn. The Humvee will fire it's machine gun if you do this.

* Short Cut in Hawaii : Before the tunnel you'll see construction cones. Go through them on the forest side and it'll take you up a 2-track and off a cliff.

* Shortcut in China : When racing in China, you will find a breaks in the sides of the wall. Hit the gas and cut your wheel. It will take you through the break in the wall and across a country road before rejoining the game ahead of your compitition.

* Shortcut in New York : The shortcut through the Big Apple is on the third exit through a construction zone!
