How to Race
At the beginning of each race, Captain Caveman will count down on the videoscreen. When he holds up a sign saying "GO!" it's time to start racing! Each race lasts for five laps of the track. The starting positions are random. To get your character moving all you have to do is press the joypad in the desired direction. The character will accelerate automatically so long as the joypad is pressed. If you wish to accelerate more rapidly press the turbo button for a few seconds. This will use up the characters energy, however, so use turbo with caution.
By jumping into other characters you can stun them for a couple of seconds. This can make overtaking a lot easier. There are ways to stop other characters stunning you, but it's up to you to find out how!
As the race proceeds magic crystals will appear. It is normally a good idea to try and collect these. Watch out for other Hanna Barbera Classic Characters popping up during races, they can get in your way and hinder your progress. There are ways to use them to your advantage, but it's up to you to find out how again!
During the race the videoscreen displays the characters in the same order as they are in the race. Beneath each character's face is a bar that represents the amount of energy that character has remaining. Every time you complete a lap, the lap number of the lap you are starting will be displayed on the videoscreen.
When a character starts the final (5th) lap of a race a bell will sound three times. Captain Caveman will wave the winning flag as soon as any character wins the race.
When a character completes a race they will go transparent, the computer will take control of the character and the finishing position will be displayed on the videoscreen. Once all human controlled characters have finished, the race will end.
Single Race Mode

When the race is completed, the final positions will be displayed together with the times taken to complete the race.
