Traction up hills becomes the biggest issue. Performance seems to diminish as you get muddy in this one, so try to jump as much mud as you can. The treads on the tank also handle the large number of sharp points very well, when other vehicles get stuck with a tire on either side of the point. The Mountain stage works best with vehicles that are good at making short, steep climbs, and are resilient to flipping. The Hippie Van is not affected by the trees, but it still does not seem as effective as the 3 below. I don't enjoy this one very much so I haven't put in much time. It takes power and traction to push through the trees. There's a hill at around 1150m that stops most vehicles. Better to gently crest the hill, ride down the other side and pick up speed for the next. If you jump off a hill and land on the up slope of another, you have to back down and start over. The slick surface means that very early in the level you need a running start for most hills.

Timing when you let off the gas becomes even more critical than in cave. Tank does consistently well because of its tracks.Ī combination of cave and moon.

This one is just really hard to get distance on - the second one wheel gets off the ground you are starting to flip.

Eventually traction and speed to get up some hills become an issue, at which point you have to get real good at letting off the gas early and cresting the hills. Slower or shorter vehicles do well here because they are easier to keep from flying over jumps. Any vehicle without a gas upgrade will need to hit every gas after about 1400m. The distance between gas cans goes up about 50m each time you get to one, so watch your distance and try to figure out when the next one is coming up so that you don't jump over it. The hill at around 2340m stops most vehicles that get that far. Gas becomes the limiting factor.Īgain traction is the main concern.

I don't have much fun with this stage, so I haven't put much time into it. The trees don't really get in the way here. Once you hit 2000m, there are a couple of hills that are very tricky, and one in particular that is very hard to not break your neck when you land. Some hints for each stage, and my 3 best vehicles below.Īs far as money, either take the fully upgraded Truck to highway and take your time with it (can get millions per run this way if you are careful/patient, but the runs are slow), or take something like Motocross Bike to the moon and just rack up the air/flips.
