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.
Fantasy drivers:
Enter 'Extra' 'Drivers' as a name at the
create a car screen.
Hints: Lowe's Motor Speedway: Car setup:
The following setup is to be used with caution. With
this setup, your car can and will slide out of turn four and hit
a wall if you are not careful. Change the car setup to the following
settings. Tire Pressure: 23 PSI; Down force: Fender Flare, 74';
Rear Spoiler, 51 degrees; Suspension: Front and Rear Springs at
100%, sway bar at 1/4 ', and Wedge at -4.0; Gears: first
to 1.30, second to 1.10, third- 2.00, fourth- .80; and Rear End
to 4.60. This setup takes away the handling needed to succeed
on Lowe's, but the speed will give you an advantage. The acceleration
combined with the speed will get you up to about 195 mph by turn
four, lap one. Also, this setup allows you to not let off the
gas if you have all assists on. Use unlimited gas/tires for this,
as it will eat your tires.
Hints: Easy paint schemes:
Use the following trick to unlock your favorite driver's
paint schemes easily. First, set the difficulty level to veteran
or legend. Then, set the race length to 3%. Turn on unlimited
tires and fuel and turn off damage. Go into quick race and choose
the driver whose paint scheme you want to unlock. Choose Daytona
Night [Pepsi 400]. Before you qualify, go into car setup and set
the transmission to manual. Set the gear ratio to 5. Exit out
and qualify. You will notice your car is much faster than the
others. You are running it at over 9500 rpm [about 193 to 198
mph]. No one will be able to catch you. The race is very quick.
In less than an hour's time, you can unlock many driver paint
schemes.
To unlock paint schemes, instead of using the veteran difficulty
setting, go to the rookie setting switch the speed one level to
the right. It will become custom. This will also unlock paint
schemes.
Win two titles to unlock the Driver Kitt paint.
Hints: Bristol: Easy win:
First, turn on the running line, and unlimited fuel
and tires. Qualify as you would for any track. During the race,
when the running line turns red, wait a moment before letting
off the gas. Then, hit the gas when you reach the green again.
The car will automatically go high, and the other cars will slow
down. You can go around them. It may take a few laps, but eventually
you will be running in the front. This tactic can be adapted for
all short tracks.
When at Bristol Motor Speedway on the second lap, on the second
turn the other cars will slow down.
Hints: Faster donuts on celebration:
When you win a race and start to celebrate, begin to
do a donut. When you are spinning, hold the brake and your car
will spin even faster.
Hints: Talladega: Car setups:
Go into car setup. Go into 'Gear Ratios'
and change the two down at the very bottom to '89' and
'4.45' respectively. Note: '4.45' for the
bottom one and '89' for the one above it. Accept the
changes, start the race, and by the end of the back stretch on
the first lap, you can get up to and over 200 mph.
Go into car setup. Then, select 'Auto Transmission'.
Set the tire hiture to '30'. Loosen or tighten the
car as desired. Finally, go to the gear ratios. Leave the first
gear as is. Set second gear to '1.85', third gear go
'1.35', fourth gear to '1.01' or '1.02',
and leave rear end as is. When you start the race, second and
third gear will be a little slow, but when you get to fourth you
will blow them away. At the end of the first lap you should be
going about 190 to 195 mph.
Hints: Better acceleration and easier handling:
For all of the tracks except for Daytona and Talledega,
go into car setup before the race. Change your tire hiture down
to 15 psi for better acceleration and easier handling. For Daytona
and Talledega, leave it at 25 psi.
Hints: Rookie stripes:
When in career mode, the back of your bumper has yellow
stripes on it. When you get to the second season, they will be
gone.
Hints: Pay At The Pump lightning challenge:
During the Pay At The Pump challenge, step on the gas
all through the track. Put a big enough lead on Bobby Labonte
and Sterling Marlin so that it is about a two to three second
gap. You will run out of gas at the exit of turn four, depending
on how hard you have been pushing the car. If the lead is big
enough, just block and you will win the challenge. This may take
a few attempts, but if you drive the car correctly it will be
an easy way to win.
Hints: The Big One lightning challenge:
At the start of the challenge or a few seconds after,
slow the car to 181 to 183 mph. Do not let the meter at the top
of the screen transfer below 24th or you will be out of contention.
When you feel that you have enough room between the cars that
will wreck and yourself, accelerate. You should have enough speed
to get to about 4th place. Stay alert to dodge the wrecking cars.
Do not slow if you happen to drive through some smoke. You have
to time it correctly in order to catch the lead pack.
Hints: Eight Championships:
Win all eight championships and get the Eight Championships
video with a New Lightning challenge.
Hints: Daytona: Easy win:
Make sure the race is set on ten percent race length.
Then, cause a crash on lap four. If done correctly, there should
be a caution. Go into the pits, and ignore that fact if no one
else also enters. You will probably be last, but there will soon
be another caution and the leaders will come in. Stay out and
do not pit. After the stop, you should be in first or second place.
You will run low on gas, but you will not run out. Block and you
will be able to win.
At Daytona in career mode in the Datona 500, when you pit instead
of taking four tires or right side tires, take on left side tires
and enough fuel to make it to the finish. You should leave the
pits in first place, providing that you came in first or near
it.
Hints: Watkins Glen: Easy win:
Set the race length to 5%. On the first lap, cause
a caution. When asked to pit, do not. On the second lap, cause
another caution. This time when asked, pit. You will be 43rd place,
but just before lap 4 everyone else will have to come in and pit.
You will coast to an easy win with enough fuel and tires.
