VII.    BASICS OF WINNING

Heres some small tips on getting that first place position on those 
damned, HARD and BONUS tracks:

MIGHT HULL.  Use it wisely, grasshopper.  Save that boost until you
have someone in your range, and nail him.  Donıt wait too long 
to catch up to him.  You want to be using your boost 95% of the race.
If you dont, you wont be able to catch up to that pesky first place
driver.

TAKE CORNERS SHARP.  Take them too wide, and you are gone.  Below,
is a map to bring out my point.

---------------------
|
|
|          ++++++++++++ 
|         +|---------
|        + |
|       +  |
|      +   |
|          |

The + mark is your best pathway.  Of course, some boats just canıt take
corners like that, but that should give you a basic idea on how you
should take corners.  Keep in mind that if you have a boat in your
sites, you can use your Mighty Hull instead of trying to out race him.

EXTRA BOOST.  Hit acceleration when the clock turns to 1.  This helps
a lot, and you can usually get into 14th place in 5 or less seconds.
This takes some carefull adjustment because theres only a second or 2
area where it works.  Once you get it down, you will always get it,
and it will help you out on every race.

BOOST ICONS.  Grab everyone.  If theres 2, get the +9 if you can.  
The more you have, the longer you are in boost mode, and you need
to be in boost mode for around 90-95% of the race.

USE THE RIGHT BOAT.  If your doing a sharp-turned course, donıt use
the fastest boat!  Try the course out first, and decide what boat you
want before you actually race.  Getting first will be a lot easier
once you find the right boat.
