Hot Wheels Velocity X - Disabling Your Vehicle in Joyride Mode
🔇 TAP TO UNMUTE

An interesting way to crash Hot Wheels Velocity X that I accidentally encountered while messing around with Sooo Fast in Joyride mode. It completely crashed the game. I tried the exact same thing with Sooo Fast again and recorded it that time. I have no idea why this happens. I tested it on the GameCube version too, and the game still crashes. Since I had the free time and was intrigued, I tested it with every single car in the game. The following cars crash the game when you do what I did in this video:
- Sooo Fast
- Jaded
- Hyper Mite
- Maelstrom
- HW Prototype 12
- Twin Mill II
- Super Tuned
The thing that all these cars have in common is the fact that they all have 30 armor (besides Super Tuned). Weirdly though, this doesnt work with every car that has 30 armor; the ones that dont crash the game just get disabled as intended. Also, this only works in the Crankshaft Bay Missions, because falling off the bridge has a different effect in Joyride.

I finally did a 100% speedrun of Hot Wheels Velocity X and recorded it! Yes, I did purposely plan to upload this on the 15-year anniversary of Hot Wheels Velocity X, which is actually today, in case you didnt know. Now, what I need to talk about is what went wrong with this run, and why it could be much faster. As you probably know, I use a hidden Atom Blaster in the first race in Mission 3 to disable Nitro really fast, and beat the Mission really quick, compared to just racing to the ends of both races normally. This saves a lot of time, and works out great in this run... Except not really. Let me explain: if you race to the ends of both of the races, you win the Mission as intended. After winning the second race, the game says New car unlocked!!! Jaded and says New level unlocked!!! Turbine Sands. With the strategy that I use to defeat Nitro and beat the Mission, it doesnt say either of these, because I preformed a sequence break. After beating the Mission that way in the run, I didnt unlock Nitro, and didnt unlock Turbine Sands as a Joyride level. Later on in the run when Im finishing it off by completing all of the Joyride levels, I realize that Turbine Sands is locked, so I end up having to completely redo Mission 3, and beat it the correct way to unlock Jaded and Turbine Sands so I can get all of the Gears and get the Hidden Key to complete Turbine Sands as a Joyride level which is necessary towards 100% completion. That was most definitely something that cost me some time in the run, and is a mistake that I wont make again if I do a 100% run in the future.
Mission 2 skip: Went perfectly.
Mission 3 skip: Dont do this in a 100% run ever again.
Mission 5 skip: Went perfectly.
Mission 6 skip: Went perfectly.
Mission 10 skip: Went perfectly.
One more thing to mention that is very important: this run uses a COMPLETELY different route than the previous 100% WR by SrakS. I do the Challenges first, and acquire various Cheats (Cheats are optional for the 100% category), while the previous 100% WR by SrakS didnt involve getting Cheats. Also, the most difficult part of the run is collecting enough Bonus Point spheres in Challenge 8, which you have to collect 11 of. I had to restart the run MANY times because I kept messing that up, and I couldnt even believe it when I got all of the spheres in time, I actually thought I wouldnt be able to do it in time, considering the shaky start to the Challenge.
Im glad I finally did a 100% speedrun of the game. Happy 15th anniversary to Hot Wheels Velocity X!
