================================== CHAPTER 2 ================================
No new areas open as you begin Chapter 2; you're still confined to Radiator
Springs. However, once you complete "Boostin' with Filmore", you'll have a
boost tank and can reach some previously unreachable parts of Radiator
Springs. (As well as have a lot more fun in the races.)
######################################################
EVENT: Boostin' with Filmore [WT09]
TYPE: Race (3 laps)
LOCATION: Filmore's tent
REQ: Finish Palm Mile Speedway
REWARD: 5 trophies for 1st place
3 trophies for 2nd place
2 trophies for 3rd place
2 events for finishing 3rd or higher
First boost tank
UNLOCKS: North Desert Dash
Sarge's Boot Camp
######################################################
If you finish "Boostin' with Filmore" before "Luigi to the Rescue", you will
unlock "North Desert Dash" and "Sarge's Boot Camp". This is a pretty standard
race, you should be used to them by now. You'll be doing a lot of
Powersliding and Tilting, so the new boost tank will come in handy. You get
to keep the boost tank after finishing the race, so do this event as soon as
Chapter 2 starts.
There are a couple of good shortcuts near the beginning of the race as you go
through the gullies behind the Cozy Cone. The first is to your right as you
enter the first wash; Tilt to turn hard right into it. The second is to your
left after the big jump coming out of the gullies. Again, Tilt hard left to
turn into it, then boost to make a couple of jumps into the old drive-in.

EVENT: Luigi to the Rescue [WT10]
TYPE: Mini-game
LOCATION: Casa Della Tires
REQ: Finish Palm Mile Speedway
REWARD: 20 trophies for finishing all eight levels
2 events for finishing the first level
UNLOCKS: North Desert Dash
Sarge's Boot Camp
######################################################
If you complete the first level of "Luigi to the Rescue" before finishing
"Boostin' with Filmore", you will unlock "North Desert Dash" and "Sarge's
Boot Camp".
"Luigi to the Rescue" is a timed collection game. Tires are scattered around
Radiator Springs, and you must rescue them *and* return to Casa Della Tires
before time runs out. Tires will show on your mini-map, and can be seen from
a distance by the vibrating arrow floating over them. (The arrow moves up-
and-down.) Run over a tire stack to pick it up.
Later levels will generally require two or three (or more) tries to memorize
the optimal retrieval order. Remember, you need time to get back to Casa
Della Tires after you've picked up all the tires. (Note: Luigi can't boost.)
In general, pick up tires that are farther out of town, trying to move in a
circular pattern. The tires are typically on or beside roads, so you can kind
of follow a "race course", picking up tires as you go. There are a few tires,
especially in level 8, that are positioned on ledges or in shortcuts and take
a bit more work to get.
-> Level 1: 6 tires, 1 trophy, 2:30 time limit
-> Level 2: 7 tires, 1 trophy, 2:30 time limit
-> Level 3: 8 tires, 2 trophies, 3:00 time limit
-> Level 4: 10 tires, 2 trophies, 3:30 time limit
-> Level 5: 9 tires, 3 trophies, 3:00 time limit
-> Level 6: 12 tires, 3 trophies, 5:00 time limit
-> Level 7: 11 tires, 4 trophies, 5:30 time limit
-> Level 8: 12 tires, 4 trophies, 5:00 time limit
######################################################
EVENT: North Desert Dash [WT11]
TYPE: Race (3 laps)
LOCATION: Flo's V8 Cafe
REQ: Finish either "Boostin' with Filmore"
or Level 1 of "Luigi to the Rescue"
REWARD: 5 trophies for 1st place
3 trophies for 2nd place
2 trophies for 3rd place
UNLOCKS: Nothing
######################################################
Complete "Boostin' with Filmore" before attempting this race. While not
overly difficult, you'll definitely want a boost tank in case you have to
make a quick recovery.
######################################################
EVENT: Sarge's Boot Camp [WT12]
TYPE: Mini-game
LOCATION: Sarge's compound, north of town
REQ: Finish either "Boostin' with Filmore"
or Level 1 of "Luigi to the Rescue"
REWARD: 2 trophies for beating Level 1
3 trophies for beating level 2
5 trophies for beating level 3
1 event for finishing the first level
UNLOCKS: Sarge's Off-Road Challenge
######################################################
The Boot Camp is a series of timed obstacle courses. There are three courses,
and you must complete three laps within a time limit on each course in order
to move on to the next course. Complete the first course to open "Sarge's
Off-Road Challenge". Each course follows the same track, only the obstacles
change. Be sure to earn your first boost tank before attempting this
challenge.
-> Level 1: 4:00 time limit. Jump a couple of boards to start, then it's
through a tunnel with a sharp left turn. Try to stay off the wall and
catch some air coming out of the tunnel. When you reach the walls of
tires, slow down to weave your way through, then boost out of the next
turn.
-> Level 2: 4:00 time limit. The walls of tires are worse here; don't try to
speed through, you'll lose more time crashing into the walls than just
picking your way around. After the walls and the ensuing jump, there's a
180-degree turn. There's now wire over the turn lane; stay inside to
avoid getting caught in the wire. After that turn, there's a narrow
bridge over a dip in the course--take the bridge, even if you have to
drive slowly. The pit underneath is filled with obstacles.
-> Level 3: 4:15 time limit. The tire walls are gone on this course,
replaced with a series of platforms you have to jump up. After that are
some swinging tires, which actually aren't that hard to avoid. At the
180-degree turn, you now want to jump up on the ledge to the left and
try to stay up on it to avoid the barrels in the lower turn. The bridge
is wider, but has a lot of holes. Either jump them or slow down and
weave through them.
######################################################
EVENT: Sarge's Off-Road Challenge [WT13]
TYPE: Race (3 laps)
LOCATION: Sarge's compound, north of town
REQ: Finish Level 1 of "Sarge's Boot Camp"
REWARD: 5 trophies for 1st place
3 trophies for 2nd place
2 trophies for 3rd place
1 event for finishing 3rd or higher
UNLOCKS: Motor Speedway of the South
######################################################
This course is full of sharp turns, high jumps and shortcuts. A lot of the
shortcuts can do you more harm than good, since you have to jump onto most of
them, thus leaving yourself momentarily out-of-control. Go for them only if
you really want the bonus points. You'll definitely need a boost tank as
you'll be doing a lot of Powersliding and Tilting around the turns.
######################################################
EVENT: Motor Speedway of the South [WT14]
TYPE: Race (12 laps)
LOCATION: In front of Mack, next to Flo's
REQ: Finish Sarge's Off-Road Challenge
Earn 40 trophies
REWARD: 10 trophies for 1st place
6 trophies for 2nd place
4 trophies for 3rd place
2 events for finishing 3rd or higher
UNLOCKS: Chapter 3
Mater's Backwards Lesson
Sheriff's Chase
######################################################
This race takes place on a flattened oval--the ends of the oval have short
straightaways so you have four 90-degree turns instead of two 180-degree
turns. The turns are only slightly banked, but since you're only turning 90
degrees, this isn't much of a problem. Still, it's easy to slide into the
outside walls, so take the turns hard inside and use a bit of tilt if you get
too far outside. Try to take the turn inside of other cars so you'll bounce
off them rather than the wall.
