PLAYING THE GAME
XS Airboat Racing tests your racing skills against the various characters in the game. You will race through various levels that will each prove to be as challenging as the next.
See if you can work your way up to the Gold Cup and unlock the various extras throughout the game.
GAME MODES
TOURNAMENT MODE
In tournament mode, you race in one of three cups. Each cup consists of three different tracks.
As you race, you will earn points depending on your finishing position. The better you do, the more points you will earn. At the end of the three races, the points will be tallied and the winner will receive the cup.
ARCADE MODE
In arcade mode, you race on a track selected by you. Be fast because it's a quick race, but only the best will win!
TIME TRIAL MODE
In this mode, you simply race against the clock. Choose a character, choose a track, and then off you go!
Once the race is over, your time will be stored for future reference. This is a great way to learn the tracks as you are the only one racing and you can study every nook and cranny.

You can see which type you receive by looking up on the top of the screen. To use your power-up and weapon, just press the R2.
