Hint:
Pace car: After coming out of the pits, press Brake. Reverse back
into the pits and hit the pace car at about 100 mph. If you hit it hard
enough, it will move. Steer it into any oncoming traffic.
Hint:
Big air: At Sears Point there is a hill with a huge Valvoline logo on it.
Drive up the hill and you will fly into the air -- and your car may catch on
fire.
Go past the first hill at Sears
Point (the one that if you go too fast you will ramp and hit the wall) to
the Valvoline jump, but do not ramp it. Turn around and go to the left side
of the screen next to the wall and accelerate. Go forward until you ramp
(this jump can hurt your car more than the Valvoline jump). You can do 720s,
nose dives, half flips, etc.
Glitch:
Sink through track: Go to the Richmond race track and select practice mode. After you
leave the pit area, turn around and go through the pit from the wrong end.
When you get to the very end, behind the last car is a little white square.
Drive your car in, and it will sink through the level. Note: You can also
push other cars into it.
