Orange Asphalt

Rewards: Clear Gem—destroy all 20 boxes.

To earn the crystal here, you need to come in first place against the other eight racers! Start your motorcycle off in the left lane to break the first two boxes. Note the police car ahead. Unlike the police vehicles you’ve seen in other races, this one moves left and right across the path. Keep an eye on it and pass by before heading right to avoid a pit. After that, take the left ramp to break a box floating above it, and watch out for the next moving police car.

Avoid the police car, then get in the left lane quickly to hit the speed boost. Break the two boxes right after. Switch to the left lane to break two boxes, and watch out for the next moving police car. Just past it, veer into the right lane to avoid the signs. Once you’re past, enter the left lane to avoid another batch of signs. Break the next two boxes in the left lane, just before two sharp turns.

Take either of the two ramps, but hit the left lane after landing to score a speed boost. Take the jump in the middle of the road to avoid driving headlong into a pit. Land in the right lane to break a box. Pass two moving police cars and get in the right lane to bust the next two boxes. Steer left to avoid some signs, and then back right to avoid another batch. Grab the speed boost just behind them. Avoid the moving police car, and take the ramp to break the box above it in the air.

Land in the middle of the road to hit another ramp. This lets you miss signs blocking the entire road, and sets you up to break a box. Pass the next moving police car on the left, avoiding the pit behind it to the right. Use the same tactic to avoid another police car, then make your way past the pit in the right lane. Ignore the next ramp in the middle of the road and take the speed boost behind it. Move to the left lane to take advantage of another speed boost. Avoid the next police car, and enter the right lane to eventually reach another speed boost. Afterward, steer into the left lane and take a ramp to clear a pit, landing on a box.

Take the next speed boost in the middle of the road, then take the ramp. Break the three boxes in the air as you sail over police cars and a pit. After you land, continue on to see two more sets of speed boosts and ramps. Take the one on the left to break a box. Once you land, you face the same setup. This time, take the right to break a box.

After landing, hit the middle of the road to take the speed boost over the ramp, clearing a pit. Roll on to claim the Clear Gem if you’ve gotten all the boxes. If you claim first place, you earn a crystal.
