The Game

On the starting grid, for the toughest challenge yet. 4 all-weather stages in your custom kit rallycar! Keep an eye on your FUEL/WATER/OIL gauges. If you are getting low, just drive into the PITS to fill up. Points are gained for knocking other cars off the road, with these you can buy extra add-ons in the pits. Choose TURBO, BUMPERS, HIGH PERFORMANCE TYRES, or GAS CANS. Use points wisely, as these are also used to buy fuel etc.

Finish three laps in the given time, to qualify for the next level. Remember to spend as little time in the pits, as the clock keeps counting!

Hints And Tips

1. Race around the four huge multi-load rally stages as fast as you can. You will have to do two or three laps around each rally stage.
2. You get more points for finishing each stage quickly.
3. Your remaining time at the end of a stage is added onto the time allocated for the next stage. This makes the later stages slightly easier.
4. Stop at gas stations to fill up with Fuel, Oil and Water or to buy add-ons with your points. If you run out of fuel while rallying, it's GAME OVER!
5. Knock other cars for extra points, but only if you have to. 10 impacts to your car make you lose all your add-ons (unless you have bumper add ons, which can survive 20 impacts)
6. Avoid oil slicks, black ice, bumps, water, trees etc. as they'll make you lose control of your car. If you crash, you lose points.

Customising Your Car: The Add-Ons

1. Bumpers
   Allow you to collide with other cars up to twenty times.
2. Turbo
   Hold down fire while you're racing for turbo boost.
3. Gas Cans
   Give you extra capacity for gas. This will help you to not run out in mid rally. Remember: If you run out of gas, that's the end of the rally
4. Sticky Wheels
   These double your road traction and stop you skidding on oil, water, ice etc. Very useful for the later stages.

Loading The Other Stages

The other stages are on the tape after the game, and will load into the computer as they are needed. It's a good idea to zero your tape counter when the title screen appears after loading the game so that you just have to rewind to 000 when the computer asks you to rewind to the beginning of level one. Both the game and the rally stages are recorded once on each side of the tape.
