R4: Ridge Racer Type 4 Cheats For PlayStation

  1. Rocket Start

    At race countdown, hold the accelerator down so the revcounter needle hits the 12 o'clock position. Then quickly step through the gears to about 4th [or 5th] while keeping the needle at approx 12 o'clock. This requires a balancing act between the needle and the accelerator button. Now as long as you have L2+R2 held down as the countdown finishes you will be propelled forward at that gear without suffering wheelspin!

  2. Rocket Start with neGcon

    I believe i've executed the Rocket Start with a neGcon, except there are no L2 or R2 buttons, so i didn't hold them. It's excacly as the Rocket Start by IcemanUK, but here it is for completeness' sake: Quickly step through the gears to 4 or 5, then accelerate to about 12 o'clock position (around 6000 rpm for me). Don't worry about the L2+R2, the neGcon doesn't seem to need it.

R4: Ridge Racer Type 4 Cheats For PlayStation 5

  1. Rocket Start

    The rocket start is only a matter of timing. It works in ANY gear as long as you shift up JUST before the light turns green (GO!). For the fastest launch:

    - You need to pick MANUAL transmission!
    - At race start, hold down the accelerator and keep it held down. Start shifting up once the engine is around 6k.
    - Shift up STEADILY through the gears until you reach the second-highest gear for the car.
    - Wait until JUST BEFORE the light turns green (GO!) to shift up into top gear.
    - ZOOM!

    Note that you do NOT need to keep the engine revs at OR above 6k, just "high". It's the optimum shift point for most cars in the game. Again, as long as you shift up JUST before the light turns green, you can rocket start in ANY gear. Though, of course, top gear is the best one to be in. ;3
