I. Guide
===============================================================================
Road Trip a Racing-RPG-Adventure and part of long-running game series based on
miniature collectible cars known as Choro Q.
Over twenty Choro Q games have been made, and sadly, only a handful have been
localized outside of Japan. Road Trip, known as Choro Q HG 2 in Japan, is
easily the best title in the series.
Congratulations on discovering this little-known gem! Enjoy the game!
=========================================================================[@101]
Getting Started
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When starting a new game, you'll be prompted to enter your name, and a name
for the kind of currency you'd like to use. For example:
Name: The Stig
Currency: £
After listening to the president talk, leave the Q's Factory and enter the
Parts Shop, left of the factory. You have $1000 to spend. Buy the Quick
Steering Wheel and the Panther Engine. These are the best parts you can get
right now.
Once you buy the parts, leave the shop, head southeast until you
see a house on your left with a Coffee sign. Enter the building and accept
the offer. You now earn $10 for every mile you drive. To claim your money,
simply return to the coffee shop. Go back to the Q's Factory and equip the
parts.
Now enter the Peach Raceway race and win 1st place two times, for a
total of $600. Now head southeast following the signs that say Next City.
Eventually you'll cross a bridge. Now you're in Fuji City
Enter the Q's Factory on the left side of the road (allowing you to warp
between the two towns). Exit the factory and go to the parts shop. Buy a
Light Chassis. Now find the Noodle Shop where you'll get a new billboard.
Go back to the Q's Factory and equip it and your chassis.
Enter the Ninja Temple Raceway race and win it. Once again, follow the Next
City signs and get on the freeway. Take off on the My City exit on the left.
Drive into the black and white building that says Wonder Realty. Answer yes,
and you're now given a garage and the task of building a city. By talking to
certain cars, you can send them to this city and they'll build houses in it.
You'll also have a fan club. (If not, warp to Peach Town and win another
race) Now by talking to the cars listed in the Teammates section of this
guide, you can recruit cars to your racing team.
I suggest you warp back to Peach Town, recruit two teammates, and then do
whatever you want from here on out! The sky's the limit and you've only just
begun your grand journey!
But wait, you still want guidance? Here's a few playstyles to try:
- Mixed Bag
Don't spend too much time doing one thing. Vary your gameplay to keep from
getting bored. This is the most enjoyable way to play. Just have fun, race a
little bit, do some adventuring, take some pictures. Move on to the next town
when you get tired of the one you're in. It should feel natural to you.
- Coin Crazy
If you want coins and nothing but, here's a suggestion: begin following the
Choro Q coin guide and find as many as you can as early as you can. You'll get
the great Big Tires after only 50 coins giving you a big head start on races.
- Adventurer
Forget racing, you want to see the world! Journey around and complete stamps
and build a good collection of parts from gifts. This can be very beneficial
earlier in the game. Refer to the Stamps part of this walkthrough for help on
adventuring.
- Speed Demon
Adventuring is tedious and boring to you. You just wanna race. My suggestion
is to spend more money on upgrade parts and less on looks.
- Scrapbooking
You can go to almost every Quick-Pic from the very start of the game. It's
almost useless to do them all early on, considering there's no reward besides
a single stamp for getting all 100, but if you just like to kick back and
travel, this is the playstyle for you.

Locations
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Peach Town
----------
"Town full of peach trees"
Hierarchy: 2
Races: Peach Raceway, Peach Raceway II
Description: Peach Town is the city you'll start your game in. It offers a
limited selection of parts, but the races here are the fastest way to make
money in the first half of the game. Peach Town also has a large number of
good teammates to choose from, which will be invaluable early on.
Fuji City
---------
"City has a big castle"
Hierarchy: 3
Races: Ninja Temple Raceway, Temple Raceway
Fuji City is by far my favorite city to look at, especially from the
mountaintop viewpoint. It has a decent selection of parts, some excellent
teammates and a variety of things to do. Fuji City also contains one of the
most frustrating aspects in the game: The Dreaded Maze. You may make it
through once, but under 3 minutes is near impossible without a guide.
Luckily for you, I sat down with some graph paper and mapped out the maze.
Here's the link:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps2/915200-road-trip/faqs/23595
My City
-------
"Your own city to develop"
Hierarchy: 10
Races: Endurance Run, Q's Rally
My City is the most useful and complete city in the game. Basically, you
tell people about your town, and they'll move there and open up all kinds of
houses and shops. It has everything you'll need and will eventually become
the hub for all activities and purchases in the game. It contains My Garage
and innumerable mini-games and teammates. Plus, it's fun to watch your town
grow and develop.
My Garage
---------
"Warp to your garage anytime"
Hierarchy: 1
While your garage isn't a city, it's a very important location that you'll no
doubt visit very often. It contains your email, wall patterns and lets you
pick from a list of minigames you've encountered during your adventure.
Sandpolis
---------
"City of glaring neon lights"
Hierarchy: 4
Races: Desert Raceway, Night Glow Raceway
Sandpolis is the first big city you'll find on your adventure. It's packed
with places to see and things to do, most importantly of which is the soccer
mini-game. While you may find it easy to beat the computer, playing soccer
against your friends is a blast. It can't be overstated; this is a big city.
It may take you a while to find all of the houses here.
Chestnut Canyon
---------------
"City of steep rocky valleys"
Hierarchy: 5
Races: Miner 49er Raceway, Lava Run Raceway
Chestnut Canyon is a small village built on a range of mountain cliffs.
There's not much to do here, but you can create a personal greeting that the
townspeople here will use, which is kind of cool. Mine was "sup".
Mushroom Road
-------------
"Mushroom grows around the road"
Hierarchy: 6
Races: River Raceway, Slick Track, Oval Raceway
This small niche city contains only a few things, namely golf and a lake
goddess, but no cars! Maybe it's just me, but the goddess reminds me of the
waterfall fairy in Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Anyways, the parts
shop sells good tires, and there are three different races, but other than
that, there's not much to do here.
White Mountain
--------------
"Mountain covered with snow"
Hierarchy: 7
Races: Snow Mountain Raceway
White Mountain is another large city that will take you quite a while to see.
Marvel at the ski jump, practice curling and don't forget to be good for
Santa. Yes, White Mountain has it all and a bag of chips. Here you'll find
a plethora of teammates and useful parts, as well as some useful items such
as the invaluable Coin Radar.
Papaya Island
-------------
"Island with natural beauty"
Hierarchy: 8
Races: Sunny Beach Raceway, Lagoon Raceway
When you're all stressed out from racing, take a relaxing vacation on the
beaches of beautiful Papaya Island. Here you'll find exotic locales, as well
as special parts and mini-games. Enjoy waterskiing and fishing in this
island paradise. And when you're all rested up, catch a rainbow to Cloud
Hill, the home of the president.
Cloud Hill
----------
"Floating island with rainbow"
Hierarchy: 9
Races: Tin Raceway
Cloud Hill feels like an exclusive member's club in the sky. Certain items
and areas won't be available until you complete almost everything in the
game. But available right off the bat are some excellent teammates, great
parts and cool bodies.
Other Locations
---------------
Windmills, Underwater Ruins, Grand Ocean
These locations are more scenic than anything, but they do provide you with a
few stamps. I've explored the ocean for hours and found no hidden secrets.

Reverend Jim writes:
You have to use your spoiler, utilizing the L1 and L2 buttons. Start with
the spoiler up, and then after you cut off the engines wait a sec and then

Use this map:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps2/915200-road-trip/faqs/23595
Rock Climbing
Location: Chestnut Canyon
Difficulty: ***
Rules: The rocky mountain is very steep. So you will not be able to climb so
easily. Find the route you can climb. Climb in 2 minutes.
Golf
Location: Mushroom Way
Difficulty: ***
Rules: There are a total of 9 holes. Hit the ball by bumping into it, and try
to knock it into the hole. All you have to do is drop the ball into each
hole. Try to finish the course within or under the par. Par is a certain
number of golf strokes for each hole.

jump in the roulette in place of the ball. If you win, you get money.

Rules: There are 5 steps in all. Before the start, check a route. Aim for the
goal, following the determined route. 5 seconds will be added to your time
for each cone you touch so please be careful.
Soccer
Location: Sandpolis
Difficulty: **
Rules: It is a 3-on-3 format. Whoever scores 3 points first wins. You'll be
teamed with your racing teammates, so having good parts can be a benefit.
Rainbow Jump

From there, accelerate and jump! Can you land on the floating island? Don't
fall short or go too far!

you drive along the course. They will lead you the right way when the road
separates. Choose the road you think is the correct match. If you get it
right, the course continues. You need to correctly choose all five roads
within their time limit. Concentrate!
Volcano Course
Location: Chestnut Canyon
Difficulty: *****
Rules: You have to make it to the toolbox in 1 minute 10 seconds! Don't fall!
Tip: You need some of the best brakes and a lot of patience to complete this.
I've received several emails asking how to do this, and there's really nothing
I can say except practice, and if you're getting frustrated, take a break and
come back to it later.
Curling
Location: White Mountain

Rules: At the start signal, you can move forward to a white line. Once you
cross the line your gas pedal and brake will not work. Steer yourself into
the circle, as close to the bullseye as possible. Scores are:
Red= 10 Points / White= 20 points / Blue= 50 points / Yellow= 100 points
You can slide three times, and the total of those slides will be your score.
Barrel Dodging

Difficulty: **
Rules: Grandpa Tal's barrels will come rolling down the hill. You must dodge
the barrels to get to Grandpa Tal's house. The white line is the goal.
Ski Jumping
Location: White Mountain

Rules: At the start signal, accelerate and jump. The distance from the jump
ramp to where you land will be your score. Try jumping as far as you can.
Fishing
Location: Papaya Island

Rules: There are 30 fish in a section surrounded by a fence. Can you catch 20
fish without giving up? Chasing the fish is not the only way to catch fish;
try waiting.
=========================================================================[@108]
About Teammates
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you've won enough races, you'll gain a fan club, from which you'll receive
emails at your garage in My City. The other benefit of gaining a fan club is
the ability to select teammates from around the world to race with!
At any time, you can have up to two teammates. They'll race alongside you, and
if they place high enough, you'll earn extra winnings!
Your teammates can be upgraded and modified with whatever extra parts you may
have lying around. But beware! Every time you change their parts, they need
a few races to adjust to them. Over time, they'll become more proficient with
the parts and begin to race faster and smarter. Don't be surprised if you
give them a better engine and they end up placing last; this is normal! Take
them to a few easy races to increase their driving skills before tackling a
tough race with their new parts.
This isn't to say you should keep older parts on your teammates, just because
they're used to them. Don't be lazy! When you find some great new parts, be
sure to upgrade your teammates. A few Peach Raceway runs should only take a
few minutes and your teammates will be better off in the long run.
Skillful teammates have another useful benefit: they give your opponents some
fierce competition and keep the heat off of you!

Screen Display
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Map Radar
Located in the bottom-left part of the screen.
The radar will flash green when you have a new email.
Green Dots: Other Vehicles
Black Dots: Quick Pic Shops
Brown Dots: Houses
Blue Dots: Q's Factory
Dashboard
Located in the bottom right part of the screen. The layout changes depending
on which "Meter" item is equipped. For an explanation of the default meter:
-RPMs: The numbers around the outside of the dashboard display your RPMs.
-Fuel: On the right side is the fuel display. It'll decrease as you drive
and eventually blink and run out, making your car drive very slowly.
Entering any building will fill up your tank again automatically. Engines
with a higher energy rating eat up fuel quickly.
-Gear: On the left of the fuel display is a number that displays your
current gear.
-Speed: The large number on the bottom next to "mph" is your speedometer.
This displays your current speed in Miles Per Hour (mph).
-Time: At the very bottom of the speedometer is a clock. The number shows
what time it is using 24-hour time. The picture on the left is a visual
display of the time.
=========================================================================[@005]
Game Modes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the title screen when you turn on your game you have 5 Choices:
Adventure: This is the primary single player mode in Road Trip. You can choose
New Game to start a new save, or Continue to resume from a previous save.
Quick Race: Like it sounds- pick a course a race.
2 Player: Only appears if two controllers are plugged in to the PS2. If you
and a friend both have saves on separate memory cards, you can pit your
custom rides against each other in a number of different race types.
Options: Change Vibration, Speaker and Sound Settings.
Results: Check your standings in a variety of different races such as
Endurance Run and Tin Raceway. Not really useful unless you want to see your
times without entering the game.
=========================================================================[@006]
Menu
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pressing START during regular play will bring up the main menu. This menu will
not appear while inside a building or during a race.
Warp: Choose a city from the list and you'll instantly be warped to the Q's
Factory in that city.
Notebook: Contains information on everything you've completed. The Notebook's
appearance will change as you gain different licenses.
-Stamps: Stamps are given when you complete certain tasks. There are 100 in
all. See Chapter VI for more details.
-Pictures: This is an album of all the pictures you have taken at the 100
Quick-Pic Shops around the world. See Chapter VII for more details.
-Results: This is a log of all the race results for you and your teammates.
It also includes your scores on some mini-games.
Radio: Choose from two available radio stations. Channel 1 is Peach FM and has
songs with vocals. Station 2 is E-Radio which is just music and I this is
what I have mine set to. You can choose off if you don't wish to listen to
music. Pressing Up on the D-Pad increases the volume and pressing Down on
the D-Pad decreases the volume.
Items: In the upper-right corner is your money display. Below that are some
important stats including mileage and Choro Q Coins collected. Also listed
are Advertisements, which I will explain later in this chapter. In the sky
blue box on the left is your current list of items and below that is a
description of the item currently highlighted.
Settings: Here you can change the default controls. Highlight the one you
want and press left or right to pick a new button setting. Press Apply to
save changes. To revert to the default controls, press enter on Initial
Settings.
Map: This option displays the entire world map. Your current position is the
blinking red car icon.
=========================================================================[@007]
Shops
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q's Factory: There's one in every town. You can do a variety of things here:
Change Parts: Choose which Tires, Engine, Chassis, Transmission, Steering,
Brake, Wheel, Lights, Wing Set, Special Parts, Options, Sticker, Horn, Meter
and Body you want for you and your teammates.
World Grand Prix: This appears when you have completed every A-License race.
It's a six round championship.
Race: Choose from the city's current race list. You can only compete in
races you have a license for.
Save Data: Save your game here. I recommend you do so often.
Quit Game: Quits the current game and brings you back to the title screen.
Drive Around Town: Exits the Q's Factory.
Parts Shop: Buy various parts for your car. Some items are town-exclusive.
Body Shop: Buy different bodies for your car. For aesthetics only. You can't
change teammates' bodies.
Paint Shop: Change the color of your car or your teammates'. Choose from one
or two colors. You can paint the rims at an additional cost.
Recycle Shop: Sell your unwanted and/or outdated parts here.
