• Race: Players must compete to see who can get to the finish line the fastest.
• Battle Race: Racing, but with weapons.
• Takedown: Players must use weapons and power-ups to take out as many other cars as possible. When the timer runs out, the player with the most points wins.
• Stunt Showcase: The objective here is to put on a show by performing jumps and tricks to score points and impress the crowds.
• Best Lap Challenge: Players must try to get the best lap time around a given course.
