This trick is tough to pull off and will require some
practice before using it in a race. Get to at least 80 mph. Press
the Analog-stick backwards at an angle in the direction
that you want to turn, so it is inverting your slide. As soon
as you begin to turn, slam and hold the brakes. Force the Analog-stick
sequentially around in an extreme circle. Release your brakes
when you are about 75% through your turn. Slam your accelerator,
and power yourself through the rest of the turn. At the end, it
is recommended that you bank the car for a moment, because you
do not want the it to fly out of control.
Gold medal on Hot Pursuit event 1
(Lotus Elise Delivery)
After coming out of the first tunnel, drive up the
big hill. You will see the first cop on the side of the road.
Drive the car as if you are going to take the shortcut to the
right of the cop car, but steer left at the last moment and stay
on the paved road. The cop will take the short cut and lose sight
of you for awhile. After driving across the iron-work bridge and
through the underpass, another cop will be waiting on the left.
Follow the fence line on the right very closely and take the shortcut
down the hill. This will not only shave seconds off of your lap
time, but will help you to lose the cops.
Get rid of police helicopters
Find a dividing road. Shortcuts work perfectly. When
the helicopter is in front of you, it will follow the main road.
It will not switch roads after it is on one. Go on the other road,
and the helicopter will be gone.
No police
If you drive backwards on any track you will not see
any police.
cops
When a car is being chased by the cops, get a short
distance behind it and do a California Stop to it. It will spin
him out and most of the time he will get stopped by the officer
that is chasing him. Note: A California Stop is when you hit the
back left/right wheel with your front wheel. This will spin the
car out.
Easy points
Select "Single Challenge" at the main menu.
Set the single challenge options for one player, cops on, one
opponent as an Elise, and traffic on or off. Select a track for
eight laps. Select a car. This will get you 600, 700, or 800 points
per getaway, 100 points for leading a lap, and 2,000 points for
first place.
Easy wins in single event
When you are directly next to someone in a race and
they are getting chased by a cop, if they are in front of you
slow down to where you are directly behind them on either the
left or the right. Slowly speed up to where the hood of your car
is on the side next to their trunk. Very quickly slam into their
car to make them spin out of control. If they are too slow, they
will be caught by the cop. After this happens, continue to do
this until you are the only one remaining.
Single player race with no opponents
Select two players, and in the options menu, change
"Opponents" to "None". Back out and select
one player. Go race and there should be no opponents, allowing
easy wins and unlimited time to play on jumps.
Race in single race without opponents
Note: This trick requires two controllers. First, go
to World Racing with two players. Choose a car and race. When
race begins, exit. Go back into World Racing Challenge, then switch
the two players option to one player. Choose the same car that
appears. This is best done with the Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR. It
is similar to free run, but you can win cars and get points.
License plate number
Go into race or go to the showcase. In the race, switch
to the near view; in the showcase zoom into the car from behind.
The license plate will read "ND 4 SPD" (Need For Speed).
Glitch: Speedometer
Look closely at the speedometer of the Ford Mustang
Cobra R. The meter goes from 180 to 240 to 210 when displayed
in kph.
