================================================

II.What Is Free Ride Extreme?

================================================

Okay,Free Ride Extreme is a mode unlocked when you complete the normal game,you'll see it grayed out in the main menu till you do.Free Ride Extreme is a mission based Free Ride Game that has no cops and exactly 19 missions for you to unlock hidden cars for use in the normal Free Ride mode.Below is a list of all the cars you can unlock as well as a brief explination as to

what it's like,etc. all these cars can be found in the

Prototypes when you select your car in Free Ride,other than a few cars(The Race Cars,and the Caesar 8C Mostro).

=================================================

III.The Cars

=================================================

Each of these can be unlocked by doing the missions in Free Ride

Extreme,these will also be unlocked in the Carcyclopedia.

Prototypes

Manta-Prototype

What It's Like - It looks like a space car (pretty much)it's like a black or gray and oval,the car body.Not really a very good car,i mean it goes fast (like all Prototype cars) but it takes awhile to pick up speed, this car DOES have a upside,it corners pretty good.

Bolt-Thrower

What It's Like - Remember the ending movie? remember that car that pulls up to that lawn and them guys get out and blast that guy watering the lawn? Remember the red T-bird looking car they where driving? Well,if you were like me and said "Oh,man,that car would be sweet to drive,I wonder if you can?" Well,here ye are,this is the car a nice looking car,looks like a 60 T-Bird,this car is fast,picks up nicely,BUT it slides alot,to much sometimes.

Hotrod

What It's Like - Well a hotrod,nuff said,lol It's just a basic hot rod,got the engine like one,sounds like one,fast like one it's Red and got flames on it's sides,handles good though,a nice car.

Black Dragon 4WD

What It's Like - It looks like a jacked up 60 Corvette(Black Of

Course)and a souped up engine,this thing hauls ass hands down my favorite Prototype car.Picks up good,fast,but with speed comes loss of control,not to bad with this car though,also makes dragon like rev sounds when you first take off(Neat).

Mutagen FWD

What It's Like - It's one of them long Tudor Coupes,but it's black,got some lightning prongs on the hood,and lightning bolts on the sides.It also sounds like a space ship when you accelerate.A fair car,good speed,good handling,not the best though.

Flamer

What It's Like - Ahhhh,another Hot rod,but this is blue with red flames on the sides,and big slicks for back tires,also got the ever so famous hot rod engine,sounds like one,this thing is fast,really fast,but the tires in back really make this thing slide,so drive with caution.

Masseur

What It's Like - Well same thing as the Taxi,but this is a lighter blue,handles the same,speed the same,but this says Masseur on the back hood,and don't have the taxi hardtop.

Masseur Taxi

What It's Like - The Masseur but in taxi form,it's got a taxi hartop,and is purple,it looks like a truck jacked up,this thing is pretty fast, handles good but the shocks are quite bouncy so be careful at high speeds or you'll spin out.

Demoniac

What It's Like - Whoa! this thing is cool,it's like a souped up go- cart,it rides really low to the ground,got the hot rod features and big tires in back this thing is very FAST,use extreme caution or you'll hit everything in site,i wrecked mine almost 5 minutes after i got it, lol :D

Crazy Horse

What It's Like - Exactly like the Demoniac,EXCEPT this thing does wheelys when it takes off(Cool!!!)but makes the car very unstable, this car is HARD to handle right,the speeds there but it's just to damn tippy,and the wheelys actually hurt more then they entertain,i can see why it's called Crazy Horse :)

Bob Mylan 4WD

What It's Like - Well pretty bland none the less,looks like a fordor coupe,but it's white and got red flames on the sides,and devil horns on the hood,this thing's got great speed,takes awhile for it to get up,but not to long,great handling,but it ain't no work of art.

Disorder 4WD

What It's Like - Identical to the flamer,to a T but this is kinda gold with red flames on the sides.

Speedee 4WD

What It's Like - Another Flamer Clone,except this has got big tires on back,handles better then those other cars with big tires on the back.

Luciferion 4WD

What It's Like - Okay,let's sum this up,let's say you tok a Thor Sedan and mixed it with the devil add a little tyme(lol)and BAM!!! you got this car,as you no doubt guessed it's red,looks like a demon car,fast,and handles great,a nice mix from the norm.

Black Metal 4WD

What It's Like - Oh yeah! this is what i like,this uses the same body style as the Mutagen(pretty much)but the whole car is made of steel, and yes it's more durable,but an added bonus,this has a metal plow thing on the front,which eliminates any front damage,and send cars when you hit em,it's also got a little gun turret on the top of the car(unsure if it actually fires,i doubt it though)it's slow though :( and has horrible pickup especially after you stop or hit something,but it is bullet proof and you won't take crash or bullet damage as easy,handles great,next to the Black Dragon,i choose this,also makes metal noises when

entering/exiting and driving as well.

Hillbilly 5.1 4WD

What It's Like - The Same exact thing as the Bolt-Thrower but this is

Yellow and got rust on it.

Flower Power

What It's Like - I think the body style is Bolt Model B Delivery,but i'm not to sure,anyway,this is probably the lamest car(next to the

Manta)in Free Ride Extreme,sure it's fast(term used loosly),and handles good,but it's just ugly,it's red with psychadelic flowers on it(looks like a hippie car)pretty bland.

Flame Spear 4WD

What It's Like - Sweet,it's the same body style as them racing cars,but it's formated to look like a rocket with the rocket engine as well, sounds like your flying a jet,fast,handles great,nice alternative till you unlock them race cars,still nice even then.

Manta-Taxi FWD

What It's Like - Same thing as the manta-prototype but in taxi form.

Un-Protoype Cars

Caesar 8C Mostro

What It's Like - Well take the normal Racing model and turn it into a normal car,paint it brown and black,and turn the speed down to that of the likes of them high class cars you get from Lucas Bertone in the later portions of the game and you got a Caesar 8C Mostro.Nothing special about this car,shoulda been offered in the normal game though.

Caesar 8C 2300 Racing

Brubaker 4WD

Trautenburg Racer 4WD

Carrozella C-Otto 4WD

What These Are Like - These are every model of racing cars used in the mission "Fairplay" for your leisurely enjoyment,i just gotta say if you were like me,and just now found this out(Well i found out by doing the mission :) your probably saying 2 things 1."YES!!!!!!!!" and 2. "Bout Damn Time" Enjoy.

Well those are all the cars you can unlock in Free Ride Extreme,a very diverse bunch(Some not even worth the time)but after you unlock the last one you'll feel a sense of achievment and give yourself a pat on the back.

=================================================

IV.Car Statistics

=================================================

In this section i will just list the car stats for the above cars takin straight from in game,and i will try to explain what each stat means.

Weight - Obvious,this is what the whole car weighs in Kilograms.

Power - Is Horsepower(HP)measures how fast the car can accelerate in speed from a stop or while driving,the higher the horsepower, the faster you'll pick up speed,they also listed a (KW) value i think this stands for Kilowatts but i'm not to sure.

Max. Speed - The Vehicles top speed,also in Kilometers per hour as well.

Engine - What cylinder engine the car's using,the amount of cylinders is the number of pistons driving the crankshaft. The number of cylinders in an engine is the number following the type of engine.

For example a V8 would have 8 cylinders. Although the amount of cylinders can have and effect on the sound of the engine they really are not directly related.

(Submitted by  Mudd7845@aol.com)

Swept Volume - Swept volume is the size of the engine in cubic cm used mainly for bike engines example 1000cc would be 1000 cubic cm.

(Submitted by  Mudd7845@aol.com)

Gear Box - How Much Gears are on the transmission,for shifting purposes.

----------------------------------------------------

(Submitted By:Asi  asi_aka_asi@yahoo.com )

KW means kiloWatts, but the power doesn't set the acceleration at all. Actually the top speed, the power, and swept volume are in a good relation like this:

1.)A car with big HP can easly climb bridges without slowing to much (i think the Manta and Flower Power have prety big top speed and HP but anyway it starts very slow, it does not accelerate fast)

2.)A car with big speed (i think you know what it means), but like the Black Metal it has a lots of HP and very low speed, also it has a great "swept volume" what does it mean???, simple it's similar with the capacity of the cylinders of the motor, if a car has big swept volume than you can be sure that you can push a lot of other cars with it like with the Black Metal and you do greater damage with it, and is more stabile on the road (it doesn't jumps if you hit a sign).

3.)The acceleration is related with HP as you said and also the swept volume the type of motor is fancy stuff, it's no difference, what difference is between a Porche Twin turbo V6 and a Ferrari V8 or a

Renault V16 - almost none because it doesn't matter how many cylinders you have but how they are arranged the V16, that V16 is the worse, while the V8 is the best...from theese three a car with a big swept volume and big HP but ALSO big speed accelerates very fast (crazy horse for example) it almost rises because of the acceleration that makes it a bad car, not always the fastest, or the powerful, or both is the best, it has to be a balance. So why the Black Metal it doesn't have great acceleration , because it has very little top speed (in real life the top speed isn't defined like here, in real life the top speed depends of the type of gas (you can put Kerosene as well)in the engine, the differentials... the whole car, but in this case it is gaved

numeric-pretty dumb. An acceptable car is one with average swept

volume, with very fast speed and above average HP.

--------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------

(Submitted By:EauRouge  eaurouge_@hotmail.com)

swept volume means the size of the engine, or the total size of all the

cylinder which is measured by ml(which we use to mesure water=1000ml/cc=1

liter) or cc. example, if the size one cylinder of the engine is 400ml/cc

(means that maximum of water the cylinder can carry is 400ml/0.4 litre), and it has around 8 cylinder means that the swept volume is 400x8=3200cc. one more thing, the cylinder / engine size did not actually determine the power of the engine, because the power is effected by how much air+fuel pressure the cylinder can handle, but since more air+fuel can be push into the cylinder, the engine size did somehow effected the engine power.

Manta Prototype

Weight:2025KG

Power:190HP (140KW)

Max. Speed:109mph (175km/h)
