Race Modes
​
Classic: In Classic mode, the goal is to win the race (come in 1st, 2nd or 3rd depending on the race's Goals).
​
Time Attack: The race has a time limit. To win the race, the player has to cross the finish line before the timer runs out. A bit of time is added to the timer each time the player crosses a checkpoint, and time can also be gained by collecting green clocks around the track.
​
Hunted: The race has a time limit. To win the race, the player will have to escape in time or will be busted. To take down the cops, you can either Shock wave-knockdown them, land on them, or do a 360, as they are stronger than normal cars. For this race mode, the player has to successfully do stunts without hitting the cars at the end (not doing so will cause you to hit the cops' barricade) to win the race. Any wreck instantly results in disqualification.
