will only work in the first lap.
Hint:

tunnel. Follow the right side for a shortcut. Note: This cannot be done in
normal mode.
Hint:
Extra points: When going off a ramp in stunt mode, turn tightly immediately
before the ramp and do a flip. Doing this will give you a couple hundred
more points.
Pause the game immediately
after a stunt and just before the announcer speaks in stunt mode. When done
properly, only the announcer's voice will be heard. A large number of extra
points will be awarded for simple stunts. Another way get extra points is to
cross the finish time as the clock reaches zero.
Use character that is second
from the right when at Twilight City or Dolphin Park. Execute a sideflip
back flip. These are the easier ramps to use.
Hint:
Deeper dives: To do a deeper and longer dive into the water, go to the
watercraft selection screen. After choosing your watercraft, select
"Custom", and put the small yellow bar all the way to the
"Top End" of the "Engine" bar. Start the race and when
you go off a wave or a ramp and perform a dive, you will go farther into the
water and stay under longer.
