[9] TRACK ITEMS-OBSTACLES *TRACK ITEMS TO AVOID Puddles Driving through standing water puddles slows you down. Oil Slicks Driving through an oil slick will cause you to skid helplessly out of control. Cones You cannot drive through this obstacle, so steer clear of it. Sand Avoid driving through the sand to get the best time. Your Opponents The R.C. Drone cars can be fierce competition. When playing against a human opponent you'll find them to be quite ruthless. [10] DRIVING TIPS 1) If you find the R.C. type control difficult at first, practice, practice, practice. R.C. driving demands the split-second instinctual controller inputs that come only with practice. 2) Save your missiles or bombs until you need them most. They are saved from one race to the next. 3) Pick up the Roll Cages as soon as possible. If you don't the other R.C. cars will. 4) You cannot fire another missile until the previous shot explodes. In a tight race missing your target can make the difference.
