| Extra points | 100% | |
| If you see a police car ahead, ram it to get him to chase you. Lose the police car and you will get extra points for a hit-and-run. Look for the dirt road shortcuts to lose the police and get ahead of other drivers. Choose to be the police in Hot Pursuit mode. You will get 25,000 points each time you complete one mini-mission. Start You're The Cop mode in single player under the beginner difficulty setting. Select either the Crown Victoria or the BMW M5 (the opponents are easier to catch). Now, go to National Forest and catch the fourth and 3rd cars. On the last two, hit the 3rd one to make him lose control, then arrest the 1st place car. Immediately catch the 2nd player that you forced to lose control to minimize the time to around 138, if done quickly enough. The procedure is quick but easy, giving you over 25,000 points if you throw in a couple of jumps. Now, restart and do it again. When you are racing and are approaching the finish line, press L2 to do a 360 camera spin. If you manage to get your car on the finish line when you do the 360 camera spin, you can gain 175,000 points, if you include a couple of jumps. *** This only works once, so it must be done accurately. In a one player race, when your back tires are on the finish line press L2 to do a 360 degree camera spin around the car. If done correctly, your score will now show about 180,000 points. If your back tires are barely on, then you will only receive about 2,000 points. *** This can be performed more than once per race. In a clean race, in order to unlock the car all you have to do is finish without hitting any walls. Go to challenge mode, pick the Pursuit Crown Victoria, then choose Outback II and set it for two, four, or 8 laps. When you start the race, get your top speed points then slow down to about 75 mph. Now, step on the gas and get your top speed points again. You can keep doing this as long as desired. You can also do this on any other track, but Outback II is the easiest. Start championship event 12. Select the Aston Martin and choose an automatic transmission. Begin the race. Once you reach the finish line the 1st time, wait until you are over the line and press L2 for the special camera. Look at your point total. It should be about 180,000. Play the National Forest track in You're The Cop mode with the Lamborghini cop car after it has been unlocked. At the beginning of the race, hit boost and do not worry about getting the opponents. Near the beginning of the race, there will be a log above the road. If you go fast enough, you will get on top of the log and sit there for a little while. By doing this, you can sometimes get up to 1000 points. *** Two controllers, the Mustang Cobra, and the Corvette Z06 are required for this trick. Go to the Outback level. Let player one go ahead and go to the secret plane. Have player one go slowly up the ramp/plane and tries to get themself onto the edge of the ramp hanging off. Half of player one's car needs to be outside, and half inside. If done correctly, player one should be able to press X and not go anywhere. Player 2 then needs to go as fast as they can and ram straight into the back of player one. If player 2 goes fast enough and is aligned perfectly, they should be able to get up to 23,940 points. In Hot Pursuit or Championship mode, it is possible to get a great amount of points. When racing, get the minimum position needed to proceed (for example, third, second, and 1st place). Race and get 3rd place. When you get 3rd place and collect your points, restart the race. Only this time, get 2nd place. Collect your points, restart the race, and get 1st place. You now have the points of all 3 places and more than if you had just gotten 1st place the 1st time. | ||

| Game Hint: How to earn a Gold Medal on Hot Pursuit event 1, Lotus Elise Delivery - From MAIN MENU, select Hot Pursuit and then choose event 1, Lotus Elise Delivery. - After coming out of the 1st tunnel drive up the big hill and you will see the 1st cop on the side of the road. Drive the car as if you are going to take the shortcut to the right of the cop car, but steer left at the last moment and stay on the paved road. The cop will take the short cut and lose sight of you for a while. - After driving across the iron-work bridge and through the underpass, another cop will be waiting on the left. Follow the fence line on the right very closely and take the shortcut down the hill. This will not only shave seconds off of your lap time, but help you to lose the cops. | ||

| When you are directly next to sum1 in a race and they are getting chased by a cop, if they are in front of you slow down to where you are directly behind them on either the left or the right. Slowly speed up to where the hood of your car is on the side next to their trunk. Very quickly slam into their car to make them spin out of control. If they are too slow, they will be caught by the cop. After this happens, continue to do this until you are the only one remaining. | ||

Lose the police car and you will get extra points for a hit-and-run. Look for the dirt road shortcuts to lose the police and get ahead of other drivers. Also, choose to be the police in Hot Pursuit mode. You will get 25,000 points each time you complete one mini-mission. Start You're The Cop mode in single player under the beginner difficulty setting. Select either the Crown Victoria or the BMW M5 (the opponents are easier to catch). Then, go to National Forest and catch the fourth and third cars. On the last two, hit the third one to make him lose control, then arrest the first place car. Immediately catch the second player that you forced to lose control to minimize the time to around 138, if done quickly enough. The procedure is quick but easy, giving you over 25,000 points if you throw in a couple of jumps. Then, restart and do it again. When you are racing and are approaching the finish line, press L2 to do a 360 camera spin. If you manage to get your car on the finish line when you do the 360 camera spin, you can gain 175,000 points, if you include a couple of jumps. Note: This only works once, so it must be done accurately. In a one player race, when your back tires are on the finish line press L2 to do a 360 degree camera spin around the car. If done correctly, your score will now show about 180,000 points. If your back tires are barely on, then you will only receive about 2,000 points. Note: This can be performed more than once per race. In a clean race, in order to unlock the car all you have to do is finish without hitting any walls. # Police check If you have the Rear Mirror option on, you should see a meter (radar detection meter) at the bottom of it. If you do not see this meter, it indicates that there are no police in the current race. If you happen to see that meter at the bottom of your rear view mirror, be aware as there are law enforcers on that course. # Police detection When you are driving, be aware of the shadowed bar below the rearview mirror. It will start to climb with green and then red as you close in on a cop. If a cop is already chasing you and has issued a roadblock, watch the bar. If the strip started with yellow, it indicates that a road block is approaching. # Get the police off your tail If you have one or two police chasing you, swerve around things such as incoming traffic, trees, poles, or any other immobilized objects. The police may not see it and crash into it. This gives you an advantage to lose them. If you are way ahead of the pack and do not feel like having a police on your tail, if your radar detector detects an incoming radar (or police), zoom on the road (R2) in front of you. See where the police are parked, and slam into the back of their car. It will be a hit and run, but the police car will be dead. You will not even get a yellow star. Also, when you want to get rid of the cop chasing you at a close distance, get just behind him so that your front tire is touching his back tire. Then, turn your car slightly in the direction of the cop car. The officer will get turned around and end up facing in the wrong direction. This should give you enough time to get away. If you are really lucky, he may hit the other racers and cause a big accident. # Predict police actions Turn the "Speech" option on high in the "Audio" screen when the police are on your tail, especially when police may be present on the race course. Be aware that the police may say something about roadblocks and where they are, as well as what they may try to do to end your speeding frenzy. # Yellow stars On the upper-right corner of the screen are four star shadows. Each time you break a law or do something bad, you will get a yellow star. For example, a hit-and-run is two stars. If you get four yellow stars, you should beware of roadblocks, including the choppers. # Clean race There will be two objectives you will have to do to unlock two kinds of cars. These two involve clean racing. For a clean race, avoid hitting any object that inflicts damage on your car, such as hitting another car, a wall, etc. Hitting road signs, going offroad, or landing very hard on big jumps are excluded since those do not do any damage. # Scared opponents All of your opponents can be scared. If your opponents are directly besides you, suddenly steer towards them, as if you were trying to ram their car off the road. They will panic and veer away from your sudden move. If you are lucky, they may veer away too much, thus causing them to crash into an object, slowing them down. You can also do this to police that are on your tail. # Ferrari 360 Challenge You must complete all events in Ultimate Racer and World Championship modes. Complete Bonus Event 31 for both to unlock Super Bonus Event 32. Either Event 32 in Ultimate Racer or World Championship modes will unlock the same car. Complete Event 32 successfully and the Ferrari 360 Challenge is yours. | ||

| This trick is tough to pull off and will require some practice before using it in a race. Get to at least 80 mph. Press the Analog-stick backwards at an angle in the direction that you want to turn, so it is inverting your slide. As soon as you begin to turn, slam and hold the brakes. Force the Analog-stick sequentially around in an extreme circle. Release your brakes when you are about 75% through your turn. Slam your accelerator, and power yourself through the rest of the turn. At the end, it is recommended that you bank the car for a moment, because you do not want the it to fly out of control. | ||

Be aware that the police may say something about roadblocks and where they are, as well as what they may try to do to end your speeding frenzy. To do this, you must wait for the police to choose the road block button. If you are going over 100 mph, they will choose a spike strip, but if you are going 100 mph or less, they will choose a barricade. *** This only works if they call for a road block. If they call for a spike/barricade, then you cannot change that. | ||

| Slow opponents down | 98% | |
| All of your opponents can be scared. If your opponents are directly besides you, suddenly steer towards them, as if you were trying to ram their car off the road. They will panic and veer away from your sudden move. If you are lucky, they may veer away too much, thus causing them to crash into an object, slowing them down. You can also do this to police that are on your tail. Another way to slow down opponents is to get behind their car and ram it 180 degrees from the bottom left or right of it. *** This can also be done to cops. | ||

| Easy arrests in be-the-cop mode | 98% | |
| Do not turn on your sirens right away. Sneak up on them. When you are on them, turn on your sirens, spin them out, turn around, and hit them head on. This will result in a one hit bust every time. Use the following to deal with speeders. When you 1st enter a track and you pass the introduction sequence, press X or the Right Analog-stick Up for gas while steering left or right. This allows you to turn slightly in the direction of the racers. Do this quickly or you will lose your chance. When the actual game starts and you can drive, turn onto the road you have aligned yourself to. Do not use your boosts when making a 180 or a 360 degree turn because you will lose control. Since you are on the track, you need to drive fast to catch up to the racers. Use the boosts to aid you. Just because you have activated a boost, you do not need to use it to its full potential. If you need to, hit the brakes to slow down. Get relatively close to a racer before turning on the sirens. This will make it easier to deal with them. Use a boost to gain the edge and get in front of the vehicle. As mentioned, you do not have to exhaust it. There are 2 kinds of useful stops to you can perform to bust a speeder. Either get in front and hit the brakes, or turn your car in the direction he will go next. Be careful not to pass the racer. If you do, he will go slower to try and avoid you, wasting valuable time. When you are a cop, get into an area were you have some bit of room to swerve. Next do a California stop of the car you are chasing. This will make the car spin viciously out. Next, turn around as fast as you can and hit the front of the car. This will total the car and it will be a bust. *** A California Stop is when you hit the back left/right wheel with your front wheel. This will spin the car out. | ||

| Get the police off your tail | 98% | |
| If you have one or 2 police chasing you, swerve around things such as incoming traffic, trees, poles, or any other immobilized objects. The police may not see it and crash into it. This gives you an advantage to lose them. If you are way ahead of the pack and do not feel like having a police on your tail, if your radar detector detects an incoming radar (or police), zoom on the road (R2) in front of you. See where the police are parked, and slam into the back of their car. It will be a hit and run, but the police car will be dead. You will not even get a yellow star. When you want to get rid of the cop chasing you at a close distance, get just behind him so that your front tire is touching his back tire. Now, turn your car slightly in the direction of the cop car. The officer will get turned around and end up facing in the wrong direction. This should give you enough time to get away. If you are really lucky, he may hit the other racers and cause a big accident. If you want to lose a cop that is directly behind you, slam on the brakes then ram into them to disable them. This also works on opponents. If you do not want to be chased when the radar detector senses a cop, press R2 to see what is up ahead. When you get close to the car, slam into its rear. The car will not be able to continue the pursuit. However, this does not work on opponents. If you are cornered, press Reset Car to start back on the road and lose the cops. Use the following trick to easily escape from police radar. When you get close to a cop, stay on the correct side of the road and drive 80 mph at the most. When you have a cop on your tail, wait for it to come to your side. When it is trying to ram you from the side, brake as fast as possible. The best area to do this is at Coastal Parkland. The best car to use to make you crack up at the cop is the McLaren F1 LM or the McLaren F1. If done correctly, you will see the cop ram into the wall. In Hot Pursuit mode, whenever a police cruiser attempts to push you off the road try to push it towards the other side of the road. Eventually the cruiser will spin out of control and crash. Information in this section was contributed by saip. If you are getting chased by the cops, let the cop get a bit ahead of you and then do a California Stop to the officer. It should spin him out and you should only swerve slightly. This will give you plenty of time to get away from the cops. *** A California Stop is when you hit the back left/right wheel with your front wheel. This will spin the car out. | ||
