The left pedal is the brake, which will slow the car down, and the right pedal is the accelerator, which will move the car forward.
- Pressing both pedals will stop your vehicle so that it can't roll backwards or forwards.
These controls take on additional functionality when the car is airborne:
- Pressing the accelerator in the air will cause the nose of your car to lift etdfand pivot on the central axis, potentially allowing you to backflip.
- Pressing the brake in the air will cause the rear of the car to rise and pivot on the central axis and potentially allowing you to do a front flip.
The Air controls must be mastered in order to land correctly after a jump and to correct vehicle orientation on bumps and slopes.
Additionally some vehicles and tuning parts allow a third level of functionality to be activated.These are:
- Thrusters - Equipping this tuning part will allow you to fly on thrusters, at the cost of very high fuel consumption(The higher level thrusters the higher the fuel consumption).
- Moonlander - This vehicle comes equipped with thrusters as standard and no extra tuning part is required to use them. It differs in that if you have both "B.R.A.I.N" and "Thrusters" features upgraded to the max level and press both pedals while the moonlander is stationary (only before starting a time trial), the main 'pod' of moonlander will detach from the wheels and leave you with a flying vehicle. The only disadvantage is that you instantly die if you touch anything like the ground, obstacles, etc.
- Snowmobile - Using this vehicle, you can glide fast on the surface of water. The Water Run Event is mainly based on this feature.
- Jump Shocks - Equipping this tuning part will allow you to perform a nice jump at any time and increase your speed by jumping.
- Tractor - The tractor's scoop position can be adjusted in three ways: loose, forward and overhead.
- Sledge, Doughnut and Snowboard - These vehicles (only available in Downhill Event) can perform a small jump like the Jump Shocks part.
To activate these functionalities:
- Thrusters and Moonlander - Press both pedals down to activate thrusters and then the upper part of the moonlander will fly.
- Snowmobile - Feather both pedals to glide on the surface of the water.
- Jump Shocks, Tractor (for adjusting the scoop position), Sledge, Doughnut and Snowboard - Tap the both pedals at the same time
