There are four difficulty settings; Easy, Medium, Hard, and Rockhard. Each settings has 8 tracks making for a total of 32 tracks in the game. There are also 8 themes including desert wastes, volcanic areas, and massive jungles. Each track has four laps. Each bike can use turbo to increase their speed temporarily.
