NOTE: The "Code: (____)" is how to get to the section quickly. Here's how:
1) Do the Find command. (If you don't have this command, skip this Code thing.)
2) Type in the code of your desire, in ALL CAPS.
3) Turn Match Case on.
4) Hit Find. You'll either be at the Table of Content's code, or at the section

5) Ta-da.
Also, if I mention a section in part of the guide, I will probably also add the

change them to ()s.

V. 0.01 - 06/18/03 : Began the FAQ.
V. 0.30 - 06/29/03 : Finished with Easy Challenge, Hard Level 2, and all of the
things which are needed for any FAQ: Table of Contents,
Introduction, Conclusion & Thanks, and Legal Crud.
V. 0.35 - 07/01/03 : Finished with Kolossal #2 and Medium race 1. I then worked
on the Robot Racers section, and I have to add the secret
characters (besides Brutix) to it.
V. 0.70 - 07/02/03 : First, I finished Robot Racers (and did some formatting to
it). I finished Medium 2 and 3, completing the Medium
challenge. Only 3 more races to go...
V. 0.76 - 07/03/03 : I finished Hard Race 1. I aslo did a little fixing up of
Hard Race 2.
V. 0.77 07/18/03 : I did a little fixing up to the Thanks part of this guide.
I need to finish 2 more races, which I haven't really been
wanting to do...I also added another section, which I call
"FAQ for This FAQ." I finished it.

There are going to be times in this guide of mumbo-jumbo where you cannot
understand what is going on. I know it from proofreading this guide. So, here
is a Frequently Asked Questions (which haven't been asked, I just like
acronyms). If you can't read this section, well, you wouldn't be reading this
sentence.
And now, here is what you have been waiting for.
Question:
How are the levels laid out?
Answer:

To make a long story short, I love this game so I wrote an FAQ.
To make a short story long.........
I went over to my friend's house. I had brought my GameBoy. I wanted to play
some of his games, he wanted to play some of mine. He played Looney Toons and I
played Cubix: Race N Robots. Cubix: Race N Robots became my favorite GameBoy
game pak of all time. He let me borrow it, and I let him borrow Looney Toons.
I was happy to get rid of the annoying beeping noises.
Summer then began, and my friend continued to let me borrow Cubix: Race N
Robots (and I let him borrow Looney Toons) and bring it to Yellowstone National
Park. Half of the reason I had fun in Yellowstone was because of decoding (and
playing) Cubix: Race N Robots. I figured out most of the passwords from this
game. And I still got to borrow it for three weeks on Maui, Hawai'i. I had
begun a Cubix: Race N Robots FAQ/Guide for GameFAQs.

\_________________________/ the road, (on the map, there is a * there) so
swerve under it, then back up. Get on the bottom side of the road without
actually falling off of it, then keep on driving. You'll pass two long lines of
plants, then you curve up and the lap is over. Make sure that you keep solexing
after the circle hazard.

\ *##########*X*############* / is an oval sort of thing in the middle of the

slowing down in any way. I couldn't illustrate that in my map. You also might
be wondering what that X in the middle of the solex stretch is. Or, you might
have just learned it was there. Anyway, there is an item there which will slow
you down. It is a horrible item to get, so slow down right around the middle of
the solex stretch to avoid the evil item. I always ran into that, and it slows
you down a lot.

:::::::::::::::::::::::: | LEGEND: | As I said above, this race is a

\* | _____/ * | "LINKED?" Well, that

| # = General Path + Solex | \_____/ Otherwise, what you have to do is

_______/ \____ This is your first race against the robot

/ * _____*##############* _ * \ handling (and he has no solex). However, he
| * | \_______________/ \ * | makes two huge mistakes, and never ever uses
| * | | * | solex (to my knowledge). His first mistake
| * | | * | is where you can either go left or right
|=*=|_________ | * | around a square, he goes left. That takes
| *~~~~~~~~~ \ | * | longer. You should go right, then down. His
| # ++++++ ~ | _____/ ~ * \_____ __________________________ second

| # | \_____________ * | |=*= = Finish/Lap Line |mistake.
| # | | * | |__________________________|When you
| * \______________________________/ * / have a choice of continuing upward or
| *################################* | going right, he'll go right, around a
\_____________________________________| bend, and then up. If you just skip
the turn to the right, you can go straight, which will put/keep you in the lead
and hopefully for the rest of the race. Also, since he doesn't ever use his
solex, there are two very good solex places in the level, both are horizontal,
so that you can boost ahead, and usually into the lead.

******************
KOLOSSAL #2 RACE MAP
__________
/ \ Kolossal gets harder each time, and this is time 2. He is not
/*#########* \ as fast as you think, and he seems fast because of his good
/* ________ * \ handling, especially on this twisty level. In most levels, you
|* | \ * \ shouldn't solex too much or you ram into walls. In this race,
|# | | #| however, you can solex pretty much all that you want. Here is
|# | | #| a descriptive walkthrough of the race. You start the race. Do
|# | | #| NOT solex just yet. You will enter a right turn, so turn
|# | | *| ___ __________________________ relatively
|# | | *| | | | LEGEND: | sharply to
|# | | *\____________| | | * = General Path | continue with-
|# | \ ***#########** | | # = General Path + Solex | out delay. Try
|# | \______________ * | |=*= = Finish/Lap Line | to get your
|# | | * | |__________________________| racer to be
|# | | *| going completely straight, and towards the
|# |____ | *| bottom, because you don't want to get stuck
|# \ | *| in the hazard off-road spot on the top.
|# | ____ | *| Then, after passing a bit farther, make a
|# ____/ | | | * | sharp turn to the far right side of the
|# | _________| |___/* | track. Get straight or you'll get stuck a
|# | / ****************** / lot. As soon as you see the dead end, make
|# | / * __________________/ the sharpest left curve without actually
|# | / * / turning yourself around, then solex away. You don't HAVE to stop
|# | | * | solexing around the corner. However, at the next corner, I'd
|# | |=*=| really recommend stopping, turning, then solexing again. Turn
| * \ | * | down at the corner, straighten yourself out, and hold (A) and (B)
\ * \__/ * / at the same time. There isn't enough solex (I think) to get you
\ ****** / through this entire HUGE stretch, so when you stop solexing, you
\______/ should keep going, just slower. When the solex stops, you can let
go of (B). Then, curve right, go up, and the lap/race is over.

*******************
BUILD N BURN RACE MAP: HARD 2
_____________ __________________________
LAPS: 4 / ********** \ | LEGEND: | This level is called
/ * __________* \ | * = General Path | Build N Burn for a good
/ * / \* \ | # = General Path + Solex | reason-you should build
| * | |* | | @ = Key (See Key Map) | up your solex and then
_/ * / |* | | + = Wall | burn it at the #s on
/ ** / |* | |=*= = Finish/Lap Line | the map. It isn't all
/ *!+!/ ________/* | | ! = Gap Here, not wall | that complicated. Just
/ *+ + / ******** | |__________________________| don't use solex until
| #+ @+ / * _________/ the big long stretches. At the long, downward part,
| #|++++ / * / make sure that you stop "solexing" when there is a corner. At
| #| | * | this time, you can cut the corner because there is a simple
| #| | * | track cut, and you can pick up some solex if there is some. Then
| #| | * | after the track cut, you can solex on until it goes vertically,
| #| | * | then curve, and then you can either keep boosting along up until
| #| | * | the curve to the right, or, you can stop and save the solex. My
| #| | * | strategy would be, if you are far ahead, keep the solex, but if
| #| | * | there are robots in front or just behind you, boost away until
| #| |=*=| the curve. If they are still ahead, don't worry if they get
| #| | * | ahead. Just remember to solex away at the long stretches. The
| *| | * | computers our not as intelligent as you (hopefully), so they
| * | * | don't think to boost themselves forward at the convenient spots.
\ *___/ * / This is a pretty hard race in the game, so play the race a lot
\ #### / so you can learn about it and how it is laid out (because my
\________/ ASCII art is bad), then you will make the race so much easier.
__________________
::::::::::::::::::::: | LEGEND: | Just get ahead with the above
: KEY MAP : | + = Wall | strategy (boost on the straight
: *** *** : | line = Wall | parts) until lap 4, where you can
: | * +++++++++ * | : | @ = Key | drive in, get behind the truck, and
: | ***** **** | : | * = General Path | then grab the key, zoom out, above
: | + * *+++++| : |__________________| the pole-thingamobober, and get
: | + *****@ | : out on the left side of the fence. If you're a good
: |_______________| : racer, you have gotten far enough ahead to win the race,
: : piece of cake, and so this delay won't affect the race
::::::::::::::::::::: very much. If they are right there, however, that big
vertical stretch is right there, you can boost away and get ahead, so this
isn't a bad place for a delay-hopefully.

(Cheating: 6D) Code: (CHET)
\__________/
The only way to cheat is with passwords.
The only way to cheat with passwords is to decode them.
I have done that. Here is how to cheat away.
*************
*6Da. Levels* Code: (LVLS)
*************
The first digit, (#?????) is the level code. Enter these codes for these levels
to be completed.
______________________________ __________________________________
| Which Levels | Letter/Number | | LEGEND: |
|--------------|---------------| | E# = Easy Race # Completed |
| None | * | | M# = Medium Race # Completed |
| E1 | 6 | | H# = Hard Race # Completed |
| E2 | 2 | | EA = All Easy Completed |
| E3 | T | | MA = All Easy & Medium Completed |
| E1 E2 | Y | | HA = All Levels Completed |
| E1 E3 | P | | * = Heart |
| E2 E3 | K | |__________________________________|
| E1 E2 E3 | F |
| EA | 9 |
| M1 | 5 | The way I figured this out, in case you wanted
| M2 | 1 | to know, is I wrote it down on a chart. I
| M3 | S | wrote every legal combination down, and then
| M1 M2 | X | I wrote down the character code. The character
| M1 M3 | N | code is a code where each Letter/Number has a
| M2 M3 | J | number. I saw a pattern. The pattern is, for
| M1 M2 M3 | D | example, look at the E1 code. It is 6. Now,
| MA | 8 | look at M1. It is 5. And H1 is 4. See a little
| H1 | 4 | pattern? Look at E1, E2, & E3. It is F. Then
| H2 | 0 | M1, M2, & M3. It's D, because there aren't any
| H3 | R | vowels. Look at H1, H2, H3. C. It shrinks by
| H1 H2 | W | one. I hadn't figured it all out, but I saw a
| H1 H3 | M | pattern and filled it all in.
| H2 H3 | H |
| H1 H2 H3 | C |
| HA | B |
|______________|_______________|
However, it is not that easy. Normally, if you enter, for example, a B, which
beats the game, but the 4th character, Stats [STAT], is the first stat, you
will wind up with something wrong. You have to go to the Stat section, section
6Dd, code is [STAT].
**************
*6De. Digit 6* Code: (DGT6)
**************
As with most password games, there is at least one digit which just makes it
harder to figure out the password, to decrease the chance that you'll get a
password if you just do random letters and numbers. This is called a "check
digit," and that is how I'll refer to it.
This check digit is very simple. Add up all of the digits, add 9, divide by 32
and the remainder is the letter/number.
You don't know how to do that. But here is a better description.
_______
| 0 | 0 | The left side is the actual digit in the game, and the right side is
| 1 | 1 | the number of that digit.
| 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 | ~-STEP 1.-~
| 4 | 4 | Take digit 1 through digit 5 and convert to the character code #.
| 5 | 5 |
| 6 | 6 | ~-STEP 2.-~
| 7 | 7 | Add the chacter code numbers up.
| 8 | 8 |
| 9 | 9 | ~-STEP 3.-~
| * |10 | Add 9 to all of that.
| B |11 |
| C |12 | ~-STEP 4.-~
| D |13 | Divide that number by 32 and get the remainder.
| F |14 |
| G |15 | ~-STEP 5.-~
| H |16 | Take the remainder, find it on the chart, and find the character (not
| J |17 | the code).
| K |18 |
| L |19 | That is it! You have found the check digit. I have written a program
| M |20 | for myself which does this for me, and I will be releasing it on the
| N |21 | internet soon (I hope).
