SKILL FACTOR – When encountering a speed bump you should release the ACCELERATOR button to maintain a constant speed which lessens the potential damage to your vehicle.
DRAG STRIP
DRAG STRIP courses will be straight; however, narrow and wide sections have been added to make it more challenging. Vehicles with good ACCELERATION (Primary) and SPEED (Secondary) will do well.
SKILL FACTOR – As the vehicle gains speed, the vehicle will tend to veer left and right. The challenge is to steer the car straight to stay on course.
STREET
STREET courses will have many turns. Vehicles with good SPEED (Primary) and SUSPENSION (Secondary) will do well on this track.
SKILL FACTOR – Stay on the inside of a turn to maintain your speed.
ALL TRACKS
NOTE – Your speed will be reduced, every time you bump the side of the track or an opponent.
