Washington D.C. --------------- Travel through a storm avoiding a police car and various other cars you may encounter. Watch out for the trees. Pittsburgh ---------- Snow storms hinder your path on this stage which makes it very tricky to see the corners as you approach them. Turbo away from the Police Car but use your gears and brakes until you know the route. Low gears help on tight angled corners. Indianapolis ------------ A nice stage to deftly test your use of the Turbo. STAGE POST 1 ------------ A chance to customise your car. High grip tyres are recommended. Chicago ------- Your first chance to drive at night. Watch out for road bumps and sharp corners. St. Louis --------- Once again a police car is in pursuit. Barrels split the road at some points and although your score multiplies these obstacles reduce your chances completing the stage. Memphis ------- A tricky route which takes practice especially through the valleys of rocks. Atlanta ------- Sand drifts dog your route so stay as central as you can. STAGE POST 2 ------------ 2 options remain. Be careful which you choose. Miami ----- Turbo recommended for this extremely fast level. New Orleans ----------- Watch out for the S-bends. Use gears and brakes carefully. San Antonio ----------- The track splits into two. Be careful which side you choose. Dallas ------ A rough ground desert terrain looks deceivingly easy to negotiate. Beware unmarked corners. STAGE POST 3 ------------ Only one remaining option to take. Did you take the correct option at the last stage post? Oklahoma City ------------- Encounter bridges and fields. Lightning reflexes required for sharp corners. Denver ------ The most difficult stage of the whole route, very little signposting and blizzards slow your path. Grand Canyon ------------ A reasonably simple stage ready for your home run, but narrow roads make it tricky. Los Angeles ----------- The final stage eases you to the finish. Are you ready to play once again, TURBO OUT RUN?
