You will recieve one extra racer if you score 10,000 points before
the timer in the lower right counter counts down to zero. Thereafter
an additional racer will be awarded every 30,000 points. Up to 5

weapons that were avaliable to the car at that time.

Your turbo racer will be disabled upon contact with a tire slasher or
bomb, when hit blank by the gunman in the limo, when hitting a bomb
crater, when you collide with another vehicle moving at a much
different speed, or when you leave the shoulder.

Your speed boat will be disabled when being hit by a torpedo or bomb,
hitting a barrel, colliding with a boat going at a different speed,
or when leaving the river bank.

All enemy vehicles are blue except the helicopter.

ROAD HAZARDS

As you maneuver down the road at break-neck speed, destroying your
enemy, you must remember the people you are here to protect. The
friendly vehicles amke your job difficult because of their slow speed
and unpredictable behavior. They are not hostile and should not be
fired upon.

Other road hazards include:

Ice on the road-

Water puddle on the road-

Craters in the road - from bombs.

HELPFUL HINTS

1. It is inadvisable to pass enemy agents on a straight road. Try to
run them off the road, or wait until there are curves.

2. Oil is one of the most effective ways of dealing with trailing
enemy agent ground vehicles.

3. When coming to the forks in the road, try to lure the enemy
vehicle to the opposite road you intend to take.

The rest is up to you! Good luck.
