  7. Move while airborne

    Activate the Resurrect in Place and Levitation Cheats and select the Rocket Car. (you must place 1st in a circuit first to get it)

    Then press the Abort button repeatedly to levitate. When you press the gas, you will MOVE forward in the air. This cannot be done with any other car besides the rocket, and this makes getting keys and cans MUCH easier.

  9. Fly out of the game in Stunt mode

    It's actually possible to fly out of the gaming environment in the Stunt course. You need the invincibility cheat for this to work. Go towards the HUGE green half pipe, and go around it to the right, and then make a left so you are travelling behind the huge half pipe, and keep going straight. You will pass a large blue ramp, and then there will be a red ramp to the left. You need to run into that at full speed, and hopefully, you will fly into the air, over the wall!

  10. Tag! You're it!

    In order to play tag, you must enter Practice mode with a friend. At the beginning, while the CPU is counting down, repeatedly hit the C-Up button. After the countdown, one of the players will have the word "It!" displayed on their screen. That person is now "it" and will have to try to tag the other players. Also, the timer starts counting down from 299 instead of 999.

  11. Unlock the Pipe track

    Play the game in One Race mode and win a race in first place on every track (except for Stunt). The settings used do not matter so lowering the difficulty or changing the number of opponents will still allow you to unlock the track.
