Fantasy drivers:
Enter 'Extra' 'Drivers' as a name at the
create a car screen.
Paint schemes:
To get all the paint schemes for all the drivers, race
with the desired driver. Select any track in quick race mode under
the veteran difficulty setting. Win the race to unlock one paint
scheme. To get more, go to another race track or the same one
at a different time [for example, Bristol day or night]. This
will not work if its the same time of day, such as the two Richmond
races or the two Loudon races.
Thunder Plates:
Select the Thunder Challenge or Lightning Challenge
at the game mode screen. Complete the various challenges to get
new Thunder Plates. Note: The Plates are awarded randomly from
game to game -- winning a certain track with a particular driver
will not unlock the same Plate between games.
Richard Petty:
Enter 'Richard Petty' as a name at the create
a car screen.
Hints: Bud Shoot Out:
On the first lap, go into the pits and take on left
side tires only [no gas or repairs]. When you leave the pits,
cause a caution. After all of the caution laps, there will only
be one lap remaining and not enough time for anyone to pit.
Hints: Get pole position:
Before running a veteran race in quick race mode, take
the Thunder license and complete all three levels of the test
for the desired track. This will give the first [pole] starting
position.
Hints: Talladega: Easy win:
Go to the car set-up then select the gear ratios. Set
the ratio number to '5'. Make sure damage is off, and
tire wear is unlimited. Also, use a manual transmission. Note:
This can also be used at Daytona.
Hints: Career mode set-ups:
During your first years in career mode, your crew chief
will not be as experienced in choosing the correct setup for Superspeedways.
If you go with his decisions, you will not finish well. Instead,
go to practice mode and get a feel for the track. If your lap
times do not come close to the pole sitter's time [about one or
two seconds], then make changes on your car. Increase your fourth
gear ratio by four or five notches; you will see your acceleration
increase. This will allow you to achieve your top speed faster,
and you can accelerate out of the corners faster. It is also a
good idea to pit at the halfway mark on a 5% race, as most cars
will take the next lap to pit and you will not run into pit road
traffic. Remember to draft, and you can finish with a good position,
and perhaps even win.
Hints: Daytona: Super speed:
Go to Daytona Super Speedway at any length. At a round
of pit stops, before you enter, go to speeds of 71 to 75 mph.
Do your pit stop with a penalty; your speeds should be at around
207 mph. This will work about 50% of the time.
Set your gear ratios to preset 6 and tire hiture at 21 psi.
You will go up to 194 mph. Note: It will take your car some time
to get up to speed, but on the second lap you might even reach
speeds of 197 mph [because you will be drafting].
Hints: Road courses:
Under 'Car Set-up', go to 'Gear Ratio'.
Change gear 4 and the rear end gear all the way to the left. Accept
the changes. During the race, you will fly by the other cars,
but will blow your engine. Once this happens, quickly hit Square
to repair your car. The caution flag will appear. Get enough gas
for the rest of the race and the others will stay out. Keep doing
these steps, accept and do not pit, and you are guaranteed a top
ten finish.
Hints: Pass easily:
Draft with the car in front of you for awhile. When
you just come out of a turn, move over and you should pass him.
You can also do this on a straight away, but it works much better
coming out of a turn. Also, drafting helps fuel mileage and your
speed.
Hints: Tiburon Speedway track:
Go into the Lightning Challenges. Choose the one with
Jimmie Johnson [Home Sweet California] and win the race to unlock
the Tiburon Speedway and another Thunder Plate.
Hints: Pocono thunder challenge:
Press Start during the race. Go to the settings
and set 'Auto Brake' to 'Off'. Set 'Stability
Control' to 'Limited'. You will be able to catch
your opponent. Try to stay off the wall; if you hit it too much
you car will be gone.
Hints: Eight Championships:
Win all eight championships and get the Eight Championships
video with a New Lightning challenge.
Hints: Tiburon: Great crash:
Let all the cars pass you at the star of the race.
Line up on the start/finish line so that the front of your car
is facing the wall and the back of it is facing the pits. Hold
the brakes and wait for the other cars to come around. With you
parked out on the track and the other cars coming around, they
will hit you. When they do, you and other cars will go flying
up in the air. Sometimes this takes out four or more cars, and
perhaps even all of them.
Hints: Bristol: Great crash:
Go to Bristol, turn around, and run directly into the
lead car. If yellow flags are on, you will not be able to turn
around.
