well on a STREET course.
VEHICLE ATTRIBUTES:
To determine if a vehicle is a good fit for a track, each
vehicle has ratings across multiple attributes:
• SPEED (SP) – Top speed of the vehicle.
• ACCELERATION (AC) – How quickly a vehicle
reaches its top speed.
• SUSPENSION (SU) – How well it can keep its
speed up and over obstacles.
Once activated, you will see a red light shinning out
from the SCANNING PORT. Place the SCANNING
PORT directly onto the surface of the product. As
straight as possible, slide the unit over the barcode
from left to right or right to left. When the barcode
is read, the controller will indicate a SUCCESSFUL
scan by displaying an image of a traffic light with the
bottom light or circle flashing which represents a
GREEN LIGHT. If the scan is a PARTIAL SCAN, the
center circle on the traffic light image will flash rep-
resenting a YELLOW LIGHT telling you to try again.
An UNSUCCESSFUL SCAN will be shown by having
the top circle of the traffic light flash representing a
RED LIGHT.

BECOME THE ULTIMATE RACE CHAMPION!
You’ll have to scan, collect, trade and customize
your way to the top. With 120 hot rods, trucks and
64 car parts, it's going to take all you can give.
Head-to-head competition and 21 virtual competi-
tors will challenge you across 3 different course
types (STREET, OFF-ROAD and DRAG STRIP) and
at three skill levels (ROOKIE, AMATEUR and PRO).
So, race to win!
There are 64 parts that can be collected from the
GARAGE to customize your vehicles.
RACE:
NOTE: Always try to re-scan a barcode if you get a
PARTIAL or UNSUCCESSFUL SCAN. You will have
three chances.
When you scan a race, it will be an OFF-ROAD, DRAG
STRIP, or STREET race. Each scanned race has a
competitor, vehicle and a pre-determined number of
parts associated with that race. The screen will dis-
play the level, track and competitor. If you choose to
race, push the SELECT button and then proceed to
select your vehicle by scrolling through the VEHICLE
MENU using the TIRE WHEEL and pressing SELECT
when the vehicle you want is highlighted.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
The object is to collect as many vehicles and car parts
as possible. SKANNERZ technology allows you to
download and collect by scanning UPC bar codes
from any package. Each bar code contains vehicles
and car parts that will help you race your way to the
top. You can also customize each vehicle with your
scanned parts to improve your chance of defeating
each competitor. So, let’s gear-up!
NOTE: If no scanning activity is recorded, for 10
seconds, the screen will return to the MAIN MENU.
HINT: Flat surfaces are the easiest to scan. It takes
more practice and skill to scan round or odd-shaped
surfaces. Just remember to always keep the SCAN-
NING PORT flat against the surface when scanning.
Skannerz works best with full sized bar codes and
you may have difficulty scanning smaller bar codes.
See the UPC barcode example below.
BAD NEWS:
FEATURES AND BUTTONS:
BAD NEWS can randomly happen during any barcode
scan. You can be pulled over by a COP who will
automatically take a random vehicle. If you’re down-
load indicates a CRASH, a random car part is
