Key Locations

Key #1 - Ancient Lake
Go straight from start, you will see a ramp with the Rare logo engraved in it. The key is on that ramp.

Key #2 - Snowball Valley
From the start, do a sharp left turn. You should see a little path. Go up the path and find the key.

Key #3 - Crescent Island
Take the left path and go over to the zipper. Don't hit the zipper, but go in the water and turn right to get the key hidden in a cave-type thing.

Key #4 - Boulder Canyon
Go past the bridge and get level 3 turbo. Then turn around and make the bridge go up. When it is up, use your turbo in the center of the bridge and fly up. You should see the key and some bananas.

2X Zipper

To get 2 zippers in 1, release the A button just before you hit the zipper. DON'T press A until the smoke is gone. You can also do this with blue balloons, just let go of A just before you hit Z.

Drumstick

What ever happened to Drumstick? It looks like Wizpig captured him and turned him into a frog after their race. Anyways, you can free him! Many people think that all you have to do is get the full Wizpig and T.T. amulet, but that's wrong! You have to get the full Wizpig an T.T. amulets, AND beat Taj's 3 challenges, AND get all 4 gold trophies. As an easier way to say it, you have to COMPLETE everthing in worrlds 1-4 and the overworld. Then go look in the water on the left side of the Wizpig head in the overworld, and you should see a frog with a red rooster comb on it's head and squash it. You can also hear Drumstick crowing.

Adventure 2

To get Adventure 2, you need to complete Adventure 1. In Adventure 2, the balloons are platinum, the computers are ten times harder, and the tracks are mirrored.

Adventure 3 (Rumor)

To get Adventure 3 (Not yet confirmed), you must complete Adventure 1 and 2, and beat all the times shown when you beat Wizpig 2 on Adventure 1. I don't know if this is true, so don't yell at me if you did this and didn't get Adventure 3.

Future Funland

To get to Future Funland, beat Wizpig 1 and get all 4 gold trophies and then honk at the sign by the lighthouse.

T.T. Amulet

To get the T.T. amulet, find the keys in each of the four worlds and open thee challenge. Then beat the challenge and get a piece of the amulet. You might ask, "What do I do with the full amulet?", to answer that, you use it to open the T.T. door in Future Funland. Then you'll probably ask, "What is in the T.T. door?", to answer that, it's the second race with Wizpig!

Wizpig Amulet

To get the full Wizpig amulet, beat each of the 4 bosses twice.

Play As T.T.

To play as T.T., enter tracks mode and pick a course. Now get a really good time and T.T. will apear. Now beat T.T. in that course! Easy, huh? Not really! Because you have to beat him in EVERY COURSE! INCLUDING FUTURE FUNLAND! Actually, it's not that hard if you really try.

Turbo Start

To get a turbo start, press A right before the "Get Ready" words disappear.

Stop Skidding Quick

Hit B when you start to skid. If you do it right, you will stop skidding.
