and

Maximum Velocity

before it. The main Grand Prix mode is fairly simple. You chose a difficulty and a cup and race on a number of tracks until you are given a final rank.

Also in the game is the Story Mode. Here, you race as 8 of the characters, watching each one of their interlocking storys as you learn of all the characters, one race at a time.

Zero Test allows you too race from point A to point B, ranking you on your time. There is a number of challenges each with a pre-determined vehicle and time limit.

Training Mode lets you race around every track to improve your familiarity with every stage. Opponents are optional in this mode.
