Avoid Helicopter Exploding Munitions

The Expert Mode will have an additional obstacle for you to overcome when you decide to enter it. A helicopter will be present throughout the minigame, firing exploding munitions while traversing through the course track.

Coming into contact with these flames will slow down your speed, so be sure to avoid them at all costs.

Prioritize Collecting Blue Panels

Your energy reserves deplete much faster during Expert Mode, so it is recommended that you collect Blue Panels on the road if you choose Expert Mode as your difficulty. Be sure to stay on the central lane of the road to collect Blue Panels much easier.
