Drag
The goal is to pass a 1/2 or 1/4 mile strip. Two types are available:
|
|
#1 |
#2 |
1. Drag – you must pass the distance as fast as possible.
Burn some rubber first by pressing the accelerator in such a way that the RPM gauge is in the green for as long as possible. The time to burn rubber passes in the upper part, along with messages about the amount of grip you've managed to scrounge up.[#1]. After the time passes, you can see the result [#2].
|
|
#3 |
#4 |
Time for the race itself. First, you have to start well. Burn rubber and DO NOT go into first gear before the command is given! Watch the race queen or the traffic lights[#3]. After the start, when the RPMs go into the green, change to a higher gear. [#4].

#5 |
#6 |
Use nitro only in high gear [#5] (definitely not in 1st or 2nd, probably 3rd or even better, just after going into 4th ). Do it early enough to use the last few meters to gain speed. Finally, have a look at your score and classification[#6] If, after tuning, you get a time below 8 seconds for a 1 mile strip, you can rest assured you'll win. Rarely does the computer get such a score.

2. Wheelie Competition
The whole procedure is identical to Drag, you just have a different goal: drive as far as possible on a single axis. You'll need a really fast car. To win, follow the Drag instructions. After you take off, the car will lift up slightly. [#7] If you shift gears perfectly, and adding nitro later, you can get as much as 400 meters here.[#8]
General remarks regarding both modes:
- Remember that you have three tries. If you screw up at first, try again.
- Don't wreck your car. Even if you crash during the third pass, you'll be thrown out of the competition and your former results will be ignored, even if you were winning.
- Watch out for Over Rev. When burning rubber, don't keep the car on full acceleration for too long, or it'll overheat or blow up. Same thing happens during the race if you don't shift gears.
