Start a two-player game, and race until you reach Washington D.C. When the DC race begins, press Start and quit the game.

Next, have player #1 return to Washington D.C. and upgrade his car. After player #1 has finished, player #2 should do the same thing. Happy cruising!

Lost Wheels
After a two-player challenge game, the losing player's right front wheel will fall off if you continuously rotate the analog joystick clockwise. This should happen after the car rotates 3-4 times. Talk about driving till the wheels fall off!

Nitro Boost
