Shortcuts: In Mute City 2, Right after you make the third hard turn, you will see a ramp to the left that leads you off track. Fly at it using a booster and you will go over the gap and onto the next strip of tracks. In Rainbow Road, drive off the side of the track and tilt backward at the top of the first drop. You should land more than 10 places ahead. In Sector B, as you are going up the hill near the end, turn left after the wall disappears, then push the control stick UP so that your ship lands on the other section of track.
