Traffic Bomb

Start the game and during the loading screen press and hold Ls Rs Left  Quit the game, start the game, press and hold Ls Rs Up  Quit, start, press and hold  Ls Rs Right  Quit, start, press and hold  Ls Rs Down Don't quit! :) The X button will now zap traffic!!!

Practice Mode

(No traffic or cops) Go to the options menu and select Skill Level. Press  X Rs A Ls  VERY quickly and perhaps even one after another. If done correctly the menu line will change from yellow to pink. Some people think the code is actually X Rs Ls A so if you have trouble try it instead.

Race against a scooter

Play the game for at least 10 seconds. Pause and instant replay. Rewind to the beginning and press Rs Down B Exit the game and the rest of your races will be against a scooter.

Black Ice

Play the game for 10 seconds, instant replay, and rewind. Press B on controller 1 AND  X P C  on controller 2. You will see 'Car crashed.. Cars left: 4' flash for a second. Exit the game and race the Alpine track against the clock. The third leg will be covered with black ice.

Extra Torque

As soon as the camera zooms in on your car as the race begins, press  Ls Rs Up  on controller 2 AND  Ls Rs A C  on controller 3 at the SAME time. Nearly impossible, but verified by me (paranoid :) 'Car Crashed...' will flash on the screen for a second.

Go to options and highlight 'Opponant video On' Press X Rs Ls A  It should boot up and show you all the videos.
