Came here for a walk down memory lane. Great video man. I need this game in my life again. sad as it may seem. love the bloopers too adds some fun to the video. keep it up!
Why is this my most popular video? I really want to know how this still brings in viewers. Let me know how you got here, if you want, and thanks for all of your support!
I used to play this game when I was a kid :b and well I wanted to know which cars I never unlocked lol I been watching n64 videos lately, everysingle video remembers me to my childhood
+AMathMonkey oh man... this shit was the definition of my childhood :D popped that fucker in my ps3 all scratched and shit but still works like a charm though
+Tetra10 No, every model of PS3 plays PS1 games. I don't own a PS1 and I still own a few PS1 games to play on my PS2 and PS3, including this game. (But I made this video with the N64 version.)
It definitely was, before I knew which car to use to make that jump. I kept thinking I'd eventually make it if I kept turning around and trying again, but no, if you don't make it on your first try with a certain car, you need to try a different car. Thanks for watching and commenting!
The way that I did it when I was younger was that I landed on the first rock platform in front of it, and then turbo boost to the other one that had the Thunder Roller pick-up It was much easier this way.
It took me a while before I realized the Lakester was the only car in the game with enough air-time to reach the 2nd platform. Another way to do it is to just adjust your speed so you land on the 1st platform & then turbo to the 2nd. Also in the near 20 years this game has been out, I never knew the Rigor Motor was actually a secret car & never knew about that location. I thought the Power Rocket was the only secret car on that level. I just assumed it was a championship car you got by winning tournaments.
for the one on top the snowy boulder where you failed a few times I remember landing on the firstvrock than using turbo to go to the second boulder.....fun stuff it was hunting for all of these
I thought the video was really good. It didn’t help me. But it made me a little sad that I didn’t know about any of these when I originally used to play it with my dad. I’d have loved a few of these lol thanks for putting in the effort. It was great to watch. Edited very well too. And including your fails was excellent. :)
I'm 28 and I have clear memories of how I got to the roof and accidentally unlocked a new car as a kid.. This game was where I first saw the Twin Mill car and fell inlove with it.. Also, I would fuck around because of all the secrets and short cuts it had.. Great game and great memories man..
There's a password you can enter to unlock everything as well. Go down to where it says "Password" and enter "PWDTST" to get every track and car except Tow Jam, and "TWJM" to unlock Tow Jam. For players like me that didn't have a controller pak with which to store the game's memory. Also, did you know that almost every "Top Speed" ranking for each car is wrong? The most glaring example is for Speed Blaster, which is 10 MPH slower than Sol-Air CX-4 but has a higher "Top Speed" ranking. This game has so many interesting things about it, despite being 20 years old and relatively limited compared to other racing games.
this video is bringing back so many memories from my childhood. when i was i kid i huntes those secret cars for ever :D The song from the start trailer also stayed with me for ever :D
I really wish that the game didn’t automatically unlock everything once you beat the last cup. If they didn’t just automatically give you everything, then you’d have a reason to go back and try to find them all. Once you beat the cups there’s no reason to play anymore :(
Man, I remember spending hours trying to find these cars with my friend. Looking at this video reminds me how we actually found most of them. And this was before UA-cam was even a dream of it's creators...
Awesome video man! This was my all time favorite video game growing up, i wish i still had it or could find a way to get it again, anyways awesome video and the car rolling thunder took me and my friend hours to get back in the day.
I remember how i spend a lot of days as a kid ramming all walls on each track trying to find the cutscene s car (Jet threat). I found all cars except that one. I will download the game only for Jet threat lol
+Jason Fencer Yeah, I thought it would be funny to mess around with the audio a bit; it was a pretty random addition to the video, but I'm glad someone else liked it. Thanks for watching!
the mystery cars was something i felt was a dream like, i always asked myself: did i play a game where finding mystery cars unlocked cars? So happy i found out today that it was actually a game xD i played it years back, always thought it was on ps2.. XD
If you still don't have all of the cars, entering the password TWJM will unlock Tow Jam, which can't be unlocked by normal means, so it's not cheating. If you _want_ to cheat, entering PWDTST will unlock everything except Tow Jam. Thanks for watching!
great video! just woke my interior child. also, there's other tracks, no? I remember one that looks a bit with a jungle. In this track, I found and unlocked a little mystery car called go kart
there is nothing i remember about this game better than trying to get that car on top of the mountain i never did it just lil me couldn't figure it out
I always think about this game even till this day I I’m only 23 in year 2024 but fortunately for me I had an older cousin of 8 years that I got to play all the best games with
Hey man I have a request if it's cool would you be able to make a video showing all of the shortcuts and I ask this because on one of the tracks I would always see the AI cars going on these one set of ramps I could never figure out how to get too ita actually kind of hard to explain but it was on one of the snow tracks
3:40 I remember being up late at night with my borther trying so hard to get the mystery car then my dad went in my room yelling at my brother because he did something stupid at school.
I absolutely need to know if this is the game I remember. Is there a level where there is like a graveyard and ghosts come out of the graves or something
Thunder roller and the super van used to piss me off as a kid I was like around 5-6 years old at the time I didn’t know how to boost until my brother told me how to do it
Ha I remember playing this game all the time at my after school care program about 2002. The fellow kids would all get pissed at me because I'd always look for the hidden cars instead of acctually racing haha how boring of a kid I must of been lol good times
"This game is pretty much harmless towards young children" says Common Sense Media (to Electronic Arts) while playing it on a Nintendo 64, computer or PlayStation 3 along with certain games (Diddy Kong Racing, Road Rash 64, Barbie Cool Looks Fashion Designer, Barbie Magic Hairstyler, Spyro the Dragon, Banjo-Tooie, The American Girls Premiere, Rockett's New School, etc).
ephoenix7 That's Lightfighter by Antipode (ua-cam.com/video/qs0CcpTh51E/v-deo.html). I'm glad my video helped get his song more recognition! All of his music is catchy, and it makes for great background / soundtrack music.
Probably 10-15 years ago (as a kid), I explored every track front to back in practice mode for hours just grinding down each wall to see if it would shatter. I might have also looked up really old FAQs for the game back then, because I doubt I found the Dawn Encounter waterfall one and the well-hidden Road To Rustwell one without help. But with a combination of those two things, I was able to quickly recall all of the car locations when it came time to record this video.
Yeah, I wasn't great with basic editing skills like volume normalization when I made this. I would have deleted and remade this in better quality if it hadn't blown up like this. Anyway, thanks for watching!
Am I the only one, who read every car name with the exact voice that says the car names in the game? I haven't played this game for 15 years. But I still remember every intonation of the car names. Furthermore. I don't want to hurt you. But it is literally a pain to watch the way you are driving :D.
I don't think the N64 version has that voice, so I have no nostalgia for that myself. And I should really turn off comment notifications for my old videos, because I'm prone to getting bothered by negative comments on things I made when I was a kid.
I just found a copy of this game going through some old stuff of mine. I don't have a memory pak but you can use passwords in this game. Thàts why I have always loved games that use a password system.
It looks cool (and in real life, it's a very special model which you can charge up using an included battery-operated base, and then it glows and drives around on its own). But, I don't find it very useful for anything in the game, as I recall it doesn't have a good stunt stat, and stunts are everything for me. I agree, it's the hardest secret car to get in the game because it's just impossible to reach if you don't have the right car, and not many cars are right for that jump. I've only ever gotten it with Lakester, but I haven't tried it with every car. When I was a kid, I was afraid of dying to the minecart in Snake River Mine, so getting Formula 5000 was the second hardest for me.
@Hotwheels Stunt track driver Atleast in 1998 They're so many new over the top cars now im pretty sure there is one taken its spot 20x over Rock buster was my favorite playing this game as a child
That's obtained by winning the Hot Wheels Cup. Sorry, I excluded the vehicles that are prizes for winning cups since they should be obtained as you play rather than requiring you to hunt for them.
There is only one car hidden on Helicrash. I've found multiple sources that confirm this. Please let me know if you actually locate another car on Helicrash. I'll unlist this video if so.
Finding & getting these mystery cars back in the days meant so much to me. Days when we needed to find unlockables and not buy them. x.x
without looking up the spots online
E sem internet
I like how you used your newly unlocked car to unlock more new cars
Good stuff
Teddy the Espurr I agree, I was gonna say the same thing in my comment... Awesome video, too!
This brings back so many memories...
Saaaaaame
Back in the Day's😅👴
Ikr?
Came here for a walk down memory lane. Great video man. I need this game in my life again. sad as it may seem. love the bloopers too adds some fun to the video. keep it up!
Thanks so much; I'm very glad to have viewers like you!
Why is this my most popular video? I really want to know how this still brings in viewers. Let me know how you got here, if you want, and thanks for all of your support!
+AMathMonkey It's a useful video that clearly shows what people are looking for. Thanks!
+AMathMonkey i was looking for top racing game of PS1, then i found it.
I used to play this game when I was a kid :b and well I wanted to know which cars I never unlocked lol I been watching n64 videos lately, everysingle video remembers me to my childhood
+AMathMonkey oh man... this shit was the definition of my childhood :D popped that fucker in my ps3 all scratched and shit but still works like a charm though

Thunder Roller was always so hard to get lol
And need the one and only "Lakester" To do so
I remember playing this game when I was little. Such nostalgia watching this video.
trying to get Thunder Roller must have been really REALLY frustrating.
It definitely was, before I knew which car to use to make that jump. I kept thinking I'd eventually make it if I kept turning around and trying again, but no, if you don't make it on your first try with a certain car, you need to try a different car.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
AMathMonkey gonna have to find the game again, sold it a couple years ago.
@@AMathMonkey i did it with Speed blaster
yeahh
The way that I did it when I was younger was that I landed on the first rock platform in front of it, and then turbo boost to the other one that had the Thunder Roller pick-up

way before we are strugling to unlock "Special" Cars rather than buy DLC with your mama credit cards
Ahhhh, good memories of trying to get thunder roller, good peaceful memories -remembers how much it pissed me off-
for the one on top the snowy boulder where you failed a few times I remember landing on the firstvrock than using turbo to go to the second boulder.....fun stuff it was hunting for all of these

10 years later. And the world is a Darker place,
3:10 I spent all day on new years eve of 1999 trying to make that jump and get that car
This has and always will be my all time favorite game, just having fun looking through videos. Thanks for this.
I thought I was stupid as a kid not being able to get thunderroller without at least 10 attempts haha glad it wasn't just me
There's a password you can enter to unlock everything as well. Go down to where it says "Password" and enter "PWDTST" to get every track and car except Tow Jam, and "TWJM" to unlock Tow Jam. For players like me that didn't have a controller pak with which to store the game's memory.

The song from the start trailer also stayed with me for ever :D
I go back to this game every few years. You revealed a car that I didn't know existed in game. Damn.
Great video! i still remember how happy i was after i finally got the Thunder Roller
I really wish that the game didn’t automatically unlock everything once you beat the last cup. If they didn’t just automatically give you everything, then you’d have a reason to go back and try to find them all. Once you beat the cups there’s no reason to play anymore :(
What a trip back in time, thanks for the vid mate. Really brings me back.
If I recall there was also a cheat to get a tow truck named like Toe Jam or something.
Man, I remember spending hours trying to find these cars with my friend. Looking at this video reminds me how we actually found most of them. And this was before UA-cam was even a dream of it's creators...
I loved & miss this game so much!! It was well worth playing!
Awesome video man! This was my all time favorite video game growing up, i wish i still had it or could find a way to get it again, anyways awesome video and the car rolling thunder took me and my friend hours to get back in the day.
I remember how i spend a lot of days as a kid ramming all walls on each track trying to find the cutscene s car (Jet threat). I found all cars except that one. I will download the game only for Jet threat lol
3:22 I wasn't thinking you would ragequit after 3 or 4 tries.
You and I both know there were 47 outtakes.
i like the ending bloopers lol thanks
+Jason Fencer Yeah, I thought it would be funny to mess around with the audio a bit; it was a pretty random addition to the video, but I'm glad someone else liked it. Thanks for watching!
I remember playing this with my older brother, I always tried to get the one on the tracks but ended up getting hit by the cart
5:29 & 5:39 *(CRASH!)*
Announcer: "Losin' it!"
I used to play this all days. But, i remember i always wanted to use a go kart. I remember there was a green go kart in the game.
Guys If use project 64 1.6 press CTRL+C to open cheats and can use cheats for fun
This was my entire childhood
This what made this game fun finding the secrets
Finding those shortcuts used to release so much dopamine for me
the mystery cars was something i felt was a dream like, i always asked myself: did i play a game where finding mystery cars unlocked cars? So happy i found out today that it was actually a game xD i played it years back, always thought it was on ps2.. XD
YOOOO I remember failing to get the command center car so many times until I got it
Thanks for the video excited for the new Hot wheels game to come out in September
The Thunder Roller was always a pain in the ass to get, for some reason the Lakester is the best car to get it with
I think I own every car according to this guide, but I have the feeling there are still some cars hidden. Dunno which, though.
If you beat all of the cups it will unlock all cars. There are only 3 cups
If you still don't have all of the cars, entering the password TWJM will unlock Tow Jam, which can't be unlocked by normal means, so it's not cheating. If you _want_ to cheat, entering PWDTST will unlock everything except Tow Jam. Thanks for watching!
this guide helped me get the last few cars, thx
There’s a part of me that still believes there’s mystery cars yet to be found.
4:00 whoah i did that with the "hot wheels racer" moments ago
I still remember where some cars are after all these years
I don’t know why I’m here. But I’m entirely glad that I am.
yo same
I haven't find these hidden cars, will do that.
great video! just woke my interior child. also, there's other tracks, no? I remember one that looks a bit with a jungle. In this track, I found and unlocked a little mystery car called go kart
there is nothing i remember about this game better than trying to get that car on top of the mountain i never did it just lil me couldn't figure it out
Love this game!
2019??😃
2020 ;)
2021... I didn't even know what year it was haha
ah man i remember looking though every map to find the mystery cars
I was wandering where rigor motor was. Thank you.
pinche infancia vergas que tuve!!!
siempre llegaba al ultimo por estar buscando los carritos secretos jajajaja :)
Todo un logro haber conseguido todos en su momento sin guía xd
I always think about this game even till this day I I’m only 23 in year 2024 but fortunately for me I had an older cousin of 8 years that I got to play all the best games with
5:26 *Losin’ it!*
Hello from 2021!
Just wanted to inform you that in cold fusion, there's another unlockable car in the blimp but goodluck trying to get it
I don't even want to THINK about how hard it was to get stagefright with the dragster, haha.
Hey man I have a request if it's cool would you be able to make a video showing all of the shortcuts and I ask this because on one of the tracks I would always see the AI cars going on these one set of ramps I could never figure out how to get too ita actually kind of hard to explain but it was on one of the snow tracks
thanks friend you rock
3:40 I remember being up late at night with my borther trying so hard to get the mystery car then my dad went in my room yelling at my brother because he did something stupid at school.
the new hotweels game is not better than the old one lol :p
I played Hot Wheels Turbo Racing as a kid
I like this game more than Extreme Racing.
I absolutely need to know if this is the game I remember. Is there a level where there is like a graveyard and ghosts come out of the graves or something
Thank you for this.
I know how to unlocked cars
Thunder roller and the super van used to piss me off as a kid
I was like around 5-6 years old at the time
I didn’t know how to boost until my brother told me how to do it
Loved this game ty
Que recuerdos ctmm nunca pude llegar a la cima de la segunda cima en el mapa de hielo
and town jam?
I just got my n64 to work and tryna collect everything, was scared there was nothing for this
¡¡¡THUNDER ROLLER!!! >:0
Ha I remember playing this game all the time at my after school care program about 2002. The fellow kids would all get pissed at me because I'd always look for the hidden cars instead of acctually racing haha how boring of a kid I must of been lol good times

Lol never knew I literally only collect half of them, I'm already didn't try searching a new one after getting the Thunder Roller
1:55 what is the name of the song?
ephoenix7 That's Lightfighter by Antipode (ua-cam.com/video/qs0CcpTh51E/v-deo.html). I'm glad my video helped get his song more recognition! All of his music is catchy, and it makes for great background / soundtrack music.
thank you
How did you even find some of these?!?
Probably 10-15 years ago (as a kid), I explored every track front to back in practice mode for hours just grinding down each wall to see if it would shatter.

But with a combination of those two things, I was able to quickly recall all of the car locations when it came time to record this video.
while me, as kid sees a hole in the wall at the Dawn Encounter and try to climb it XD, eventually did it tho, fun times
When life when so simple
I collect some secret cars
3:21 scared the shit out off me 😂
Yeah, I wasn't great with basic editing skills like volume normalization when I made this. I would have deleted and remade this in better quality if it hadn't blown up like this. Anyway, thanks for watching!
+AMathMonkey I've played this for years
I Miss my PlayStation 1
Thank you
I still dont understand how i can found these cars. I mean, youtube wasnt exist back then😅
Am I the only one, who read every car name with the exact voice that says the car names in the game? I haven't played this game for 15 years. But I still remember every intonation of the car names.

3:10 I used to hop on to the first rock and turbo my way to the mystery car. Was it thunder roller there?
EDIT: Oh, I see. It was! HAHA
I just found a copy of this game going through some old stuff of mine. I don't have a memory pak but you can use passwords in this game. Thàts why I have always loved games that use a password system.
I can't break the one in the ice on cold fusion.
I think only 4x4s can break it. Same rule as those signs on the 4x4 shortcuts.
AMathMonkey yeah, ONLY 4x4 cars can break it like the twinmill or way 2 fast, ANY 4x4's. :) 😊🤓👍
ya me los se casi todos
3:54 to 4:02
I never got it when i was young in elementary school (until now)
Is that a good car?
Most difficult stage to find a secret car
It looks cool (and in real life, it's a very special model which you can charge up using an included battery-operated base, and then it glows and drives around on its own). But, I don't find it very useful for anything in the game, as I recall it doesn't have a good stunt stat, and stunts are everything for me.

When I was a kid, I was afraid of dying to the minecart in Snake River Mine, so getting Formula 5000 was the second hardest for me.
Does anyone have any tips on what car to use in the Twinmill cup?
That's like the only thing I have left to beat
@Hotwheels Stunt track driver
Why did EA make the twinmills so OP anyway
I know im asking the wrong person
@Hotwheels Stunt track driver
Atleast in 1998
They're so many new over the top cars now im pretty sure there is one taken its spot 20x over
Rock buster was my favorite playing this game as a child
What about the MYSTERY car itself?
? and all
lol
u didnt get the go kart
That's obtained by winning the Hot Wheels Cup. Sorry, I excluded the vehicles that are prizes for winning cups since they should be obtained as you play rather than requiring you to hunt for them.
I had this game I and i never unlock thunderthroller
Missed a car on super van stage
There is only one car hidden on Helicrash. I've found multiple sources that confirm this.
Please let me know if you actually locate another car on Helicrash. I'll unlist this video if so.
Is this n64?
Anyone else watching in 2021?
Thanks
