Jet Car Jump-overview

Jet Car Jump
It seems to be like a console racing game, but since my last consol was a SagaCD I not familiar with what is out there.

It has a 2d perspective kind of like Pole Position. (or )
It also has lots of coins per race like sonic the Hedgehog.

Goal:
The basic goal is to make it to the finish line.
The only thing preventing you there is the Gasoline (timmer)
Basic stratagy to not loose a life:
Get the gas cans to refill the timmer. OR
Use Rockets and Lightning to speed faster through the race.
even comming in last will not loose a racer.
You only loose a life if you run out of gas.

Tips:
The Coins are optional on Level 1
It seems like the Level setups are random
thus If you Do not complete a board it will be different next time.
every 4-6 boards there is a additional racer added to the race.
I only played up to having 6 other racers.
Getting the jet pack allows you to still get coins,
--but you cannot get anything else or use ramps.
--You also cannot crash until after you have landed.
Getting the lightning allows you to still get everything and use ramps and crash.
you can bump other racers a little, if they hit the wall you may be able to get ahead of them.

Scoring:
For the most part you need about 3000 to get all the collectables from each level.
:bloogrin 4 pts - going over a ramp
:bloogrin 1 pts - for each coin
:bloogrin 20 pts - finising in first place
:bloogrin 0 pts - Finishing in any other place.
:bloogrin 0-10 pts - amount of gas left over (getting a gas can right before the finish is good)
:bloogrin 0-? pts - for average speed

Getting the coins is difficult. it is almost imposible to get all the coins.
The most coins I have gotten on a single level was 109 and I know I missed some,
so I do not know how many are on each level but I guess about 120-130.
It is also almost imposible to steer the car when it is raining in Coin Race.

Level 1 "speed bump"

Sounds interesting. I'll tell T-Rex to unlock it.

Thanks Monty. I haven't achieved 3,000 point status yet. Might take a while as the other IF drive more aggressively with each level.
