Metro Rim

Stunt Racer 64

Features

Set in the future, the gameplay includes more than simple racing. Older vehicles (primarily those regarded even today as classics) are retrofitted with futuristic engine and turbo technology, in addition to jets mounted to allow the car to perform midair stunts. These stunts, including flips, barrel rolls, etc., allow the player to accumulate cash rewards during races on levitating tracks. Money accumulated is used to purchase new cars, as well as upgraded parts for cars.

Modes

Contest Mode - One player selects one of the starter cars, and races against a full tournament of computer characters. Although the character biographies hint that the computer characters have distinct racing personalities, there is no direct interaction with them. For each heat, a certain number of points is awarded for each place. The player must place high enough overall in each round to advance. There are five leagues to race through, each bringing an increasing level of difficulty, more opponents, more rounds, and more tracks. When a first-place overall finish is attained, the player races one-on-one against the league owner, with the prize of the league owner's car. The leagues are, in order of increasing difficulty:

Kid Cola's League

Bunny's League

Hill Bully's League

Big John's League

Dr. Death's League

Quick Race - One to four players can compete in an arcade-style race where the cash prizes do not accumulate above $1,000 (When a player reaches $1,000+, each $1,000 is traded for a Turbo that they can use to at any time to go faster.) The cars available (and their upgrade status) depends upon the game save last loaded in Contest Mode. The two main modes of the Quick Race are Single Race (with optional computer opponents) and Practice (with no computer opponents). The two stunt tracks, Half Pipe, and Stunt Bowl, are open only in Quick Race.

Cars

The "Z-Bucket," one of four starter cars.

The "Fuzz," which can be purchased and then upgraded.

When a career is first started in Contest Mode, the player selects one of four starter cars: Warbird Light, Z-Bucket, Stottlemeyer, and Del Raye. Cash prizes can later be used to purchase the rest of these starter cars if desired, along with other cars that are available by purchase only. Among these aforementioned cars, once they reach full upgrade, a fancier version of the car comes up for sale. These "upgraded" cars cannot have their parts upgraded. Neither can the cars earned from league owners.

PLEASE HELP! THIS JERK CRASHED MY CAR...Do I have MORE front end damage?

My boyfriend was driving my 2001 Chevy Metro and crashed into about a foot high curb, anyways he had HIS mechanic come out and he said there "wasn't frame damage" and it needed a control arm, which I bought the part and he put it on for $150. The guy didn't seem shady....My bf also bent the rim which, the mechanic put in the back, I changed the tire to a spare. I don't know if this is coming from the spare or not, but when I drive , the steering wheel is tilted to the right and it pulls in that direction...Is that from the spare or is there MORE front end damage? My first car had front end damage and I had hundreds of dollars of work done to it...it never drove right, so I ended up gettin rid of it...I am really worried about this. Also do you happen to know if I can take him to small claims court if there is a lot more damage and even to sue for the $150 plus the $40 I'll have to fork over for a new rim...

I would have that front end checked again by another shop. A foot high curb can do some SERIOUS damage to a little crackerbox like a Metro. Also replace that bent rim with a new one and get the donut off the car. And next time don't let your boyfriend drive; a one foot curb is kinda hard to miss even if you have a seeing eye dog helping you drive.
