| One of my funny quirks with playing the Cars: Video Game is my fixation of the speed the individual cars controlled by the computer race at. I often like to make the faster cars crash, if there's a slower car that I particularly like, and thus express sympathy for, I will try to help them get a better placing than they otherwise would have got. | | One of my funny quirks with playing the ''[[Cars: The Videogame|Cars: Video Game]]'' is my fixation of the speed the individual cars controlled by the computer race at.

| For example, I have repeatedly tried to get Mexican racer Papo to achieve a 1st place in story mode, only to fail each time. I've managed to get Papo to win 1st place, but only in arcade mode. I've managed to get El Guapo to win 1st place in [[Radiator Cap Circuit]] which is much easier since he's the second fastest of the computers in that race. | | For example, I have repeatedly tried to get Mexican racer [[Papo]] to achieve a 1st place in story mode, only to fail each time.

| To get [[McCoy]] a placing in the top four was another massive nightmare. Despite the exhaustive side effects that made my job a lot harder, I managed to get McCoy in the top four. I would have tried this a lot sooner, but I just never knew it was even possible to get McCoy in the top five, let alone the top four. | | To get [[McCoy]] a placing in the top three was another massive nightmare.
