Introduction:

Throughout this FAQ you will see the words "Index Number" and "Search Field". These are to help you locate certain sections of the FAQ, as listed in the index. Use Ctrl + F on most Word Processors and in Internet Explorer to use the Find/Locate command.

Example: If you are looking for the section "Licences - B Licence", type 'iv-a' into the Find box. 'iv' is the Index Number and 'a' is the section number. This will take you to the beginning of the section.

Options:

Index Number: i

This section has been removed, as it is absolutely pointless. If you wish to see this section, visit one of the websites which has stolen my FAQ, and you'll get version 1.1 or something close to it.

Warning: The author states: "I will hunt you all down and kill you, either that or get your website removed from the server." regarding FAQ theft.

Arcade Mode:

Index Number: ii

There are four difficulty modes in Arcade:

• Easy - 2 Laps in every race
• Normal - 3 Laps per race
• Hard - 5 Laps per race
• Pro - Unknown, haven't tried it.
