Section 0

Ok, this is my first FAQ of any type, so if you don't
like it, tough. Also please don't steal any of what
little there is here, and if you must, ask me first.

Section 1

The best tip of all:
Don't go top speed!

In most racing games holding the acceleration button
down is good, not here. I tryed it the first time I
played and, well you couldn't keep me on the road with
super glue. Kepp the RPM meteer out of the red, except
in two circumstances. Both of which are described
below.

Section 2: The Trucks

Black Stallion
Snake Bite
Samson
Rampage
Overkill
The Outsiders
Nitemare
Monster Patrol (My favorite in the looks department)
Hollywood Hogan (Uh oh, it's the black hummer!)
The Hitman
Executioner
Grave Digger (The Goldberg of monster trucks)
Carolina Crusher
Boogey Van
Bigfoot
Bear Foot
Police Truck
Wildfoot
Stinger (looks kinda like a scorpion)
Firestone

Section 3: Items


Bottle of Oil: Does what is expected, puts a puddle of
oil on the track, make trucks spin. Usually stays on
the track for the entire race.

Missle Launcher: Gives you three truck seeking
missles. One of the best items in my opinion. save
these for when you're stcuk in the back.

Atomic Bomb: This sucker will shirnk those trucks from
monsters to mice in no time. I don't see any way to
avoid this.

Lightning Shield: This sucker's good when all the
trucks are clumped together. It'll protect your truck
from the others, and send those guys flying! Not very
useful when your in front though.

Helicopter: Stop! Hover time! This baby'll allow you
to fly over nearly anything in your way. Just be
careful when you use this, stay on the track, and try
and stay low, or else you might tip. When I'm using
this is one of the two times I'm holding the button
down.

Blue Diamond: This lil gem will cause your truck to
become ghost-like. You can drive through almost
anything with this. Pretty useful anytime.

Nitro: Makes you go faster, duh! Well I rarely use
this sucker. Use this thing only on a stariaght away,
and a long one at that. This is the only other time
I'm holding the accelerator.


Section 4: Codes


YRDR - Little tires (low rider mode)
