Blue Gem cup
Collect all four blue coins in adventure mode.

Purple Gem cup
Collect all four purple coins in the crystal levels of adventure mode.

Scrapbook
Break N. Oxide's records in time trial mode to unlock a scrapbook option at the main menu.

101% completion
After you get all the trophies and N.Oxide finishes talking, you will end up in front of his arena. Do not enter. Instead, just go along and finish getting all the remaining relics and CTR tokens. When you get all of these, race N.Oxide at the final race. When you defeat him, it would be seem that you finished the game at 101%.

Firing poison potions forward
Press [Up] or "Left Analog-stick Up" while pressing [Circle] to fire poison potions forward.

Firing missiles backwards
Note: This trick is very difficult to perform and has about a 75% chance of hitting somebody when done correctly. After getting a missile, press [R2] + [Down] to look back and fire at the same time. Somebody must be visible behind you in order to get hit. The CPU racers use this technique when the game is played under the hard difficulty setting in arcade mode.

Quick start
Three green lights and one red light will appear at the start of a race. Press [X] to accelerate immediately before the red one lights up to get a speed burst.

To get an even faster turbo start, keep revving your engine until the engine bar at the right hand side of your screen is red and full. If the bar is full and the green light has gone, your start would be faster than a normal turbo start.

Faster Relic Races time
Collect all the time boxes in any Relic Race and ten seconds will be taken off your final time.

Dodging Homing Rockets

Look for a wall to hide behind.

Place a Poison Potion, TNT Crate, or throw a Bowling Bomb at the last second. Note: If done with Nitro Crates, the explosion will hit you. If you have one, drop it moments before and continue in a straight line.

Try to hide behind other player.

Jump at the last second. The rocket will explode, but it will not damage you. Recommended for experts only.

Power slide from left to right frequently. If done correctly, the rocket will miss you and hit the wall or other players.

Fire a rocket backwards. As the player who launched it to you was the nearest, the nearest player to you may be him. The rockets may crash with each other.

Dodging Warp Balls
As it hits the first player, if you are first, brake and wait for somebody to get in first place. The Warp Ball may not hit you, unless the player who launched was juiced up.

Defeating the CPU
If you are racing against the CPU and find yourself stuck in fourth place and cannot catch up, drop back to eigth place after getting ten Wumpa Fruit. When you get a power-up, it will almost always be the Energy Ball, Aku Aku or three Homing Missiles. You should be able to knock everyone off the track and speed to the front. The other characters slow down if it appears you are doing badly.

Cortex Castle: Shortcut
While racing on Cortex Castle, shortly after the two spiders and past the flight of stairs, you will see a path that goes up into the castle. Go to the far right side and drive diagonally left, up the hill. When you get to the very peak of the hill, jump and you should land on a path that is cut off from the main raceway. This trick is hard to do but is extremely effective.

When you come down from the drop-off stairs, there will be a jump ahead of it. Take that jump and turn to the left. There will be a ledge that you can land on.

Dragon Mines: Shortcut
About a quarter of the way through the race is a railroad track with coal cars on it that go to the right. Follow the coal cars into the tunnel in the side of the wall, then follow the railroad track until it appears at the middle section of the track. You will get run over by the coal cars, but you will still end up ahead.

Before the end of the lap is a blue brick road and sand. Instead of going through the sand, cut through the blue brick road with a mask and go to the finish line.

Hot Air Skyway: Shortcut
Apart from the obvious piece of track in the first jump, if super turbo pads are enabled, at the last big jump (where a blimp is across), jump at the last second to your right side. If done correctly, you will be at the entrance of the blimp, in front of the start line.

Make your way to the part where the track is split up into two by the red wall with little oval windows. Once you get down the slope by the wall, turn around by breaking, and get enough speed for going up the ramp. Once you jump at the end of the ramp, make a sharp turn in the air and go over the wall. You can get in front of every other character, and can defeat N. Oxide very easily.

Near the end of the track, there is a very sharp turn that has four "?" boxes. With a Mask, a Turbo Boost or a Power Slide, you can jump over the wall of that turn. You will be farther ahead, but you cannot get a box.

Mystery Caves: Shortcut
There is a shortcut that can be used with a mask. Immediately following the first sandtrap/jump area, turn left with a mask activated. This leads through a stalagmite-stalactite area that shortcuts a long curve.

Papu Pyramid: Shortcut
In Papu's Pyramid, go to the part where steps appear. Go on the right side where the turbo is located. Hit it and immediately go left and jump onto the ledge. Follow it and you will jump right onto the bridge and get an apple box.

In Papu Pyramid, before you get to the turn before the stairs, there are two bars that have arrows pointing to the right. Go between them, but keep to the right and jump at the last second to land on a hidden ledge. Then, jump off it. If done correctly, you will land on the other shortcut, or be lined up for it.

There is a jump on the way to the hairpin turn by the finish line . If you time a jump perfectly, you can get across to the other side. This trick has a near 100% chance if done with Aku Aku/Uka Uka or a speed boost. Also, when you approach the other end of the track, release [X] and press [Circle] + [Right] to turn in the air so you do not fall off the other end.

There is a big jump to a big turn near the piranha plants. Use a mask or turbo on the big jump and take a hard right turn to land on the downward slope. Note: To do this without a mask, do the second shortcut then jump off. When you are close the third shortcut, make sure you are in the middle. Drive to the left and use the hill next to the wall as a ramp and jump. This trick requires practice and is easier if you are either Tiny, N. Trophy, or Dingodile.

Before you go down the big stairs, there is a big gap. You do not need anything to help you across. When you hit the jump, press [R1] to get some speed. When you get up there, do not go straight or you will hit the plant and he will eat you. Just go slightly ahead and turn right. You will land on a bridge and you will get to the two set of plants.

Roo's Tubes: Shortcut
Get a mask and put it on at the last set of speed boosters. On the last jump, turn left and go to the left of the bones. Get back on the track just before the finish line.

At the end of the track, hit the turbo pad and drive slightly to the left. Jump and power slide to the goal. This should give you a two to three second advantage.

Slide Coliseum: Shortcut
There is a very sharp turn at Slide Coliseum. Get a Mask or Speedburst. Use the little hill as a ramp and jump over it. Drive straight and you will be at the end of the turn.

The turns in slide coliseum are difficult for some people. With a Mask, Power Slide, or Turbo Boost (whichever you prefer)m you can cut the turns by jumping over the tires and grass, and landing on the other side of it.

open
This trick can be done when playing with more than one person in multi-player mode. First, open the Tiger Temple shortcut and have the other player place a nitro where the shortcut opens. On the next lap, you will see that the Tiger Temple shortcut entrance will be open.

You can also do this in one player mode, but it is difficult. First, get an Uka Uka/Aku Aku. Put it on just before the last "?" box that appears before the shortcut. If you get a nitro, you can put it in the right place.

Defeating Bosses
Do not stay directly behind a Boss to avoid getting hit by power-ups. A Boss cannot hit you if you are in front of him, so drive fast.
