A simple aerial race is the name of the game. Your best bet is to build a fast plane-like vehicle--we just slapped some wings onto our trolley, added as many engines and fuel tanks as we could, and placed a couple of large propellers on the rear.

T.T. Trophy Tips:
  • Try to take an early lead so the other racers don't post much of a problem.
  • Once you learn the layout, make sure to aim yourself for the next ring as you pass through each one.

Riverbed Head to Head

    Objective: Win the Race
    Vehicle Advice: Build a fast land-vehicle with good handling--long and narrow shape recommended.

This time it's a race through the river-bed, but you'll find yourself racing back and forth along the same stretch, meaning you'll sometimes be facing your competitors head-on! As such, it's best to drive a narrow (but fast) vehicle, and stick to the riverbed's side whenever you can. If you're hard-pressed for what to drive, we suggest using Mumbo's Land Vehicle 2 chasis and outfit it with several engines and fuel tanks, and you should be good to go.

T.T. Trophy Tips:

  • Whenever you double-back on the main riverbed, stick to the sides of the track to avoid collisions with your competitors.
  • Once you learn the layout, make sure to aim yourself for the next ring as you pass through each one.

Nuts to Go

Objective: Take the Coconuts to Mumbo, then to the Pier
Vehicle Advice: n/a

Okay, so you've got to haul the coconuts over to Mumbo on the beach for a quick inspection, then deliver them to the pier. Now the vehicle you're driving can be hard to control, so it's best to stick to the road whenever you can and avoid making sudden turns--otherwise you may spill some coconuts and you'll have to go back for them! From the start, follow the path across the bridge dead-ahead, then head along the beach to Mumbo. Once he's checked out your shipment, turn right and head across the dried riverbed carefully, then follow the road right, then left at the junction and head for the pier! Although some Gruntbots may hop into your truck bed, they don't seem to do a whole lot, so don't worry about them.

T.T. Trophy Tips:

  • The vehicle can be hard to control, so try to take the path of least resistance. That is, drive straight as often as you can and avoid turning whenever possible.

Makin' Waves

Objective: Win the Race
Vehicle Advice: Build a Fast Boat

It's water-race this time, so you're going to want to have a fast boat on hand. Try using the the blueprint for Humba Boat 1 and slapping on several engines and fuel tanks. Anyway, the race course itself is pretty easy to navigated, though there are two things we would suggest. One: Go right around the second island--it'll save you some time. Two: When you come across the checkpoint behind the gears, go around the gears instead of through them--trust us.

T.T. Trophy Tips:

  • Try to get an early lead so the other opponents don't get in your way.
  • Go right around the second island to save a few seconds.

Freewheel Festival

Objective: Coast as Far as you Can
Vehicle Advice: Build a Heavy Monster Truck

The objective is simple: Coast as far as you can. The only problem is that you have no control over your vehicle aside from steering. That means no gas, no brakes, and no flying! As such, it's crucial that you build a vehicle that can maintain momentum. In this case, we suggest building a heavy monster truck. Specifically, we used a tray, then attach tons of "heavy blocks" all around it until your vehicle's weight gauge is pointed at 3 o'clock or so (try to maintain a low profile and a wide base, so your vehicle doesn't tip over). Now plant on four monster wheels and you're set!

Now the path you take is crucial--if you're just going for the jiggy, you can make a detour down the ramp inside the volcano, just off the runway. Hang a right inside and exit through the tunnel to grab your jiggy. But if you're going for the Trophy, you're going to need to take a different route: Roll on down to the airfield, then follow that to the right, around the volcano until you come across a dirt ramp leading down to a road. Follow the road to the dried river and roll on in and follow that as far as you can--this should net you the trophy.

Instead, coast down to the airfield, then follow that to the right, around the volcano until you come across a dirt .

T.T. Trophy Tips:

  • Building a heavy vehicle is key--we suggest the Monster Truck as seen in our pictures.
  • Don't go inside the volcano! Follow our route outlined in the walkthrough to ensure you get enough distance.
