| |
| Extra Cars: Shoot all Galaxians during load-up and you can |
| choose eight extra cars. |
| |
| Extra Tracks: Position first on all tracks and you can choose |
| four extra tracks. The Tracks will be the same as |
| the regular but you will race them backwards. |
| |
| Mirror Tracks: Drive through the wall behind you at the start of |
| a race with a speed of atleast 100 mph. Now the |
| track will be mirrored. |
| |
| Black Car: Finish the first four tracks in first place. Then |
| race the Time Trial or the Time Trial extra. Now |
| the black car will also be in the race and if you |
| win it will be yours to drive. (Don't worry if he |
| pass you on lap 1. He will wait for you on lap 2. |
| You must drive almost perfect on lap 2 and 3 or |
| the black car will pass you and you will lose.) |
| |
| Modify Flag: At the Title Screen: Hold L1+R1 or L2+R2 and use |
| the pad to modify the flag. |

| |
| Spinning Cars/Tracks: When selecting a car or track you can rotate them |
| by holding L1 or R1. |
| |
| Favourite Music: When the game has loaded completely you can swap |
| the Ridge Racer CD with a regular music CD. Now |
| you can listen to your favourite music while |
| playing the game. Tunes 1-6 are played during the |
| race. Number 7 is played during the Demo and tune |
| number 8 is played at the Menus before your race |
| and during the replays. |
| |
| Fish Tailing: Fish Tailing is where your rear wheels slide to |
| the outside of a turn and the front slide to the |
| inside. You can do it to get around sharp turns |
| with ease. When coming to a turn, release the |
| accelerator, hit the brake and turn in the |
| appropriate direction. When you have driven |
| through the turn, release the D-Pad shortly and |
| then start accelerate. (If you start accelerate |
| while you are turning you will continue sliding.) |
| Don't hold the break too long or you will lose a |
| lot of speed. If you do it perfectly you will |
| actually gain speed after the Fish Tail. |
| |
| Starting Tips: To get a good start, rev the engine as close to |
| 8000 rpm as possible right before the announcer |
| says "GO!". Although don't exceed 8000 rpm or |
| your tires will peel out a lot. |
