Hint: Extra points:
Intentionally crash into the left or right side of the finish line just before the end of a race. If done correctly, your racer will be awarded points for his current position, plus the points that would have been awarded to the following racer.

Hint: Faster pit stops:
Press Up while in the pits to refuel your car faster.

Hint: Make CPU miss the pit stop:
Go near the pit stop. If done correctly the CPU cars will miss the pit stop and run out of gas. You will get far away from CPU cars.

Hint: Review scores for long time:
When the "Result" screen appears, hold B or any other button except for Select or Start. The "Result" screen will remain visible for a long time. Release the button to return to the game again.

Hint: Fast mode:
