Stunt Race FX , released for the Super Nintendo in July 1994, was an innovative racing game that showcased the capabilities of the SuperFX Chip. Its advanced graphics and features set a new standard for the genre, allowing it to deliver fully polygonal cars and levels.
The gameplay is varied, with four modes to keep players engaged. Speed Trax is a high-speed arcade mode where players must qualify for each race by collecting items and restoring their damage and boost bars. Stunt Trax challenges players to complete courses filled with obstacles within time limits, while collecting as many stars as possible.
Another mode, Battle Trax, is a two-player mode where players compete on special tracks without any CPU-controlled opponents. Finally, Test Run allows players to practice all unlocked tracks.

Course Selection in SPEED TRAX
There are three classes in SPEED TRAX. Each class has four courses and a Bonus Game. At first, you can select only the NOVICE or EXPERT Classes. If you clear the EXPERT Class, you can then select the MASTER Class.
•
NOVICE Class: Course 1 -> Course 2 -> Bonus Game -> Course 3 -> Course 4 (For beginning players)
•
EXPERT Class: Course 1 -> Course 2 -> Bonus Game -> Course 3 -> Course 4 (For intermediate players)
•
MASTER Class: Course 1 -> Course 2 -> Bonus Game -> Course 3 -> Course 4 (For advanced players only; this choice will not be displayed at first)
The data for the class you cleared will be saved in the Game Pak. After clearing the EXPERT Class, even if you turn the power OFF, you can select the MASTER Class when you turn the power ON again.
Use the +Control Pad to move the flashing frame on the Course Selection Screen, then press the B Button to confirm your choice. To select the MASTER Class, press ↑ on the +Control Pad to scroll the screen.
Course Selection in FREE TRAX

Once you clear a class in SPEED TRAX, you will be able to choose from any course in that class. At first you can only select NOVICE Class, but after you clear the EXPERT and MASTER Classes in SPEED TRAX, you will have those courses to choose from.

Enemies & Characters

COUPE
An intermediate car offering more speed than 4WD, featuring stable performance, tight steering, and lower Boost meter consumption.
F-Type
An advanced, fast-running car that turns quickly due to strong down-force, but suffers a lot of damage when crashing due to its weak body.
2WD
A two-wheeled car selectable in Free Trax that turns by shifting weight and leaning, capable of setting speed records if controlled well.
TRAILER
A special, huge vehicle used only in the Speed Trax Bonus Game that is very hard to drive due to its size, hitch flexibility, and unique camera angle.
Tips & Maps

ROCK FIELD
Many stars (E) can be found all over the course. The ups and downs of the obstacles are not too intense. This is the best course to become used to playing STUNT TRAX on.
UP'N DOWN
Whether you get the stars (☆) in the air while jumping will make a big difference on your time record for this course. Accelerate on the approach run or use the Boost.
ICE DANCE
This road is icy and very slippery. To keep your speed up, avoid turning the wheel suddenly. There is a variety of obstacles on the course.
BLUE LAKE
This course features abrupt ups and downs and is highly technical, making stars hard to collect. Excelling here requires advanced driving techniques like gradual acceleration, careful cornering, and correctly timed jumps using the X Button.
