|
Never log a loss
If you challenge someone who's just way too fast for you, or get challenged by someone like that (one of the Devas showing up early springs to mind) and know you're going to lose, hit start and choose to go back to the main menu. Unlike retiring or getting a draw, the game doesn't register this as a loss. Next time you see that car, they'll still be a blue dot on the map. What does this do for you? Well, if you beat a car when it's still a blue dot (not yet raced), you get 5x the car bonus when you win, as opposed to 4x for cars that you've lost to or drawn with before.

Tip to beat the game
Trying to beat 100 Races is hard, here is a great tip which will never fail. While you are racing your lifebar will go down if you are passed by a rival, whatever amount of life you have left, will remain until you complete 100 races OR run out of energy and lose. Here is a nice tip for Full Energy through all 100 races. If you get passed, just hit Start and Click RETIRE, then RETRY. You will begin where you left off, and you life will be restored. Do this until the end, and you will be unstopable.
|
Maximum Speed
Press 'y' at the assist shifting menu, then listen for a tone. After this tone the maximum speed of the user and rival cars will be enabled after a win or lose battle. This code is for Quest mode.
