Event Types
Championship
Race your way through an entire championship consisting of six races. This is where you take on some of the most aggressive ATV riders in the world using weapons as well as racing skills to beat them to the finish line.
After racing, you may have to face an onslaught of questions from one of four characters, ranging from a reporter to a police officer, intent on locating and closing the event. Your answers here could see you land in jail, lose money, and even points from your score. Alternatively, if you do well you might receive a cash bonus. The rider with the highest number of points after all races have been completed is declared the winner.
1. From within the main menu, highlight and select NEW CHAMPIONSHIP, then press the button.
2. Now select the NUMBER OF HUMAN PLAYERS, then press the button.
3. Select competitor (complete with ATV), then press the button.
4. Enter your name by deleting characters with the Left directional button, cycling through characters with the Up or Down directional buttons and accepting character entry with the Right directional button. To finish press the button.
5. You will now receive your entry letter. Proceed by pressing the button.
After each race in championship you will return to your race garage where you can purchase new weapons before starting the round. The game is automatically saved after each event, so you don't need to worry about doing it manually. Selecting CONTINUE takes you onto the next race.

This is a race against the clock on the track of your choice. The aim of this game mode is to record the fastest lap possible and register on the leader board. You may choose from any of the riders/ATVs and there is no set time limit.
A ghost version of your best lap will appear once you have completed one lap. Keeping ahead of your ghost means you will set a new record with the fastest lap in that session.
