THE DRIVER’S SEAT
POWER GAUGE: This lights up when you press on the ACCELERATOR, and
shows the power that you’re using. When this gauge turns completely white
and begins flashing, your booster rocket is ready to fire! The gauge will
remain white the entire time the booster rocket is in operation.
STATUS: This shows you the number of the STAGE you’re racing in, the
number of the rout you’re taking and your current time.
SPEEDOMETER: Shows your current SPEED in miles per hour.
TIME REMAINING: Shows the seconds you have remaining to complete
each route.
SHIFT INDICATOR (Manual shift only): Shows whether you are in HIGH or
LOW GEAR. You will always start in LOW GEAR at the beginning of a race or
after an accident. The booster rocket will not fire if you are in LOW GEAR.
RULES OF THE ROAD
You begin each race from a tunnel. Wait for the signal to go, then hit the
ACCELERATOR and keep the following rules in mind:
Complete each route in the shortest time possible! You’re allowed a max-
imum of 80 seconds to complete the first route. If you run out of time before
to complete a route, you are retired from the race and the game ends. If you
make it to the next route with seconds to spare, the words EXTENDED PLAY!
will appear, and the seconds you had remaining will be added to the time
allotted for the next route.
Use your booster rocket wisely! Touse your booster rocket, simply stay on
the accelerator. When your POWER GAUGE turns white and begins flashing,
get ready for a burst of speed that will take you up to 682 MPH. You can
continue at this speed until you hit an obstacle or you use the brakes. Avoid
firing your booster rocket by slowing down or touching the brakes just as the
rocket seems ready to fire.
Dodge road traps! Some of the routes are in terrible shape. Many haz-
ardous bridges don’t have guard rails, and some roads are littered by con-
struction signs and slippery sand. On some routes, entire sections of the
road are missing. Other routes are full of slower drivers who would like noth-
ing better than to block you off.
Each obstacle you hit, even if it doesn’twipe out your car,costs you precious
seconds of racing time. Ramming other drivers is not only unsportsmanlike,
but bad for you – you’ll lose time and they won’t. At worst, they’ll knock you
offthe road completely.Leaving the track will also slow you down and cost
extra time.
There are ramps placed on certain routes that allow you to jump over the
worst of the unfinished roads and traffic jams, you can even jump onto ele-
vated highways! Use your booster rocket to blast through rough terrain and
give you extra distance when you are airborne.
PIT STOP
Press the START BUTTON at any time during the race to stop the action. In
the STATUS WINDOW of the game screen, you’ll be asked whether or not
you want to retirefrom the race. If you want to continue racing, use the
STEERING WHEEL to select NO and press the START BUTTON. If you
select YES, the game ends.

STAGES
STAGE 1: METROPOLIS
Race along perilous elevated bridges and through underground tunnels.
Watch for road construction along the way.
STAGE 2: TEMPLES AND RUINS
You’ll drive past some of the most impressive sites in the world, but there will
be no time to look at the scenery. Rally on a challenging dirt course. Rolling
hills wreak havoc, while poor visibility and several sharp curves will have you
standing on the brake. The road is out in several spots. Tall trees, stone
blocks, and columns loom on either side of the course. Deep pits will swal-
low any car that strays from the track.
STAGE 3: AROUND THE WORLD
Heavy traffic and tight corners make passing through this course a challenge.
If you have enough boost, you can try jumping onto fragments of elevated
highway.
STAGE 4: INTO THE SUNSET
Heavy construction undulating pavement and plenty of obstacles make this
stage a challenging roller coaster ride!
COMPLETING A STAGE
After you complete the final route of a given stage, you’ll see a chart showing
your time for each route you’ve taken, then your final time. Your position in
the chart shows how your time compares to the times for previous races.
You’ll then see a menu screen with three choices: move on to the next stage,
try the same stage again for a better time, or exit the game. Make your
choice with the DIRECTIONAL PAD BUTTON and then press BUTTON A, B,
Cor the START BUTTON.
If you fail to complete a route in time and are forced to retire from a race,
you’ll see your running time for each route you had completed. Then you will
have the choice of trying that stage again, or exiting the game.
MUSIC SELECT
Once you complete a stage or retire from a race, select TRY AGAIN from the
MAIN MENU SCREEN that follows and press BUTTONS A, B and C at the
same time. You will then see a MUSIC SELECT SCREEN where you can
select the background music you want to hear while racing the next stage.
Press the DIRECTIONAL PAD BUTTON up or down until the title you want is
highlighted in yellow, then press BUTTON A, B or C.
HIGHWAY HINTS
• Use your BRAKE. The driver who never lets off the ACCELERATOR runs off
the road a lot.
• For best results at high speeds, try to straighten out the corners by driving
in as straight a line as possible while staying on the road. Or use your
BRAKE to cut to the inside of a turn,and then ACCELERATE during the
turn.
• Learn the trouble spots of each stage and plan your routes accordingly.
• Use your booster rocket wisely. Try to calculate the timing of your boosts
accordingly to the track layout.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
TV
To locate your auxiliary channel, which is usually not 3 or 4, but a gaming chan-
nel found mostly found between 2 and 99 (example 2, 1, 0, 99), first try 00 to
see if it is the auxiliary channel. Channels downwards from 3 until a Line 1 or
Line 2, Video 1 or Video 2, Front, Aux, AV, etc., appears on screen, then push
the power button on the game and it should automatically come on if you have
selected the correct channel. If this does not work, another way to determine
your auxiliary channel is to take a look at your television remote. There may be
abutton on the remote that may take you directly to the correct channel. The
buttons you are looking for may be labeled Input, AUX, AV, Line, TV/Video, or
Video. If your remote has one of these buttons, turn your television back to
Channel 3 and select that button. The power button on the game should be
turned on in order for the game to appear on the television. If your television
remote does not have any of these buttons, and channel 00 is not working, you
may need to search the main menu for a way to determine your auxiliary chan-
nel. If none of these methods have helped you locate your auxiliary channel,
you may need to check your owner's manual and/or contact a local television
repair company.
VCR
When connecting to a VCR, you must first start with a blue background show-
ing on your television screen. To obtain a blue screen, try inserting a videotape
into the VCR, let it start to play, then hit the stop button. This may give you a
blue screen, then you can channel down to your auxiliary channel. If the blue
screen still does not appear, try entering your TV and/or VCR main menu and
see if it gives you options to select a blue screen background. Many times if
you enter the main menu on your television you can change the setting from
cable to video and display a blue screen. Also if you have an older television,
you may locate a hidden door on your television that has color,picture, horizon-
tal, vertical, and cable, antennae buttons. If your television includes this panel,
you can select the antennae/cable button and see the blue screen appears. If
you have tried all of these options and are still unsuccessful connecting the
console, then you may need to check your VCR owner’smanual or contact the
manufacturer to find out how to set up your VCR for console games.
Remember,you can't play our games through a cable box or satellite, so if
you own one of these make sure it is turned off before connecting the game.
You can connect our games through DVD players with the same connection
as a VCR.
If you still have difficulty with setup or operation of your game, please call our
players helpline mentioned at the end of this manual.
