Need for Speed II/Tracks

The game has 7 tracks. Each has its own reqirements, challanges and obstacles. The oncoming traffic can be turned off on the tracks where it is present.

Proving ground

 * Country: Norway
 * Length: 3.2 miles
 * Difficulty: Very easy
 * Recommended car: McLaren F1

Nothing to worry about here, just keep in a straight line on the straights and stay in the outside lane on the bends to carry as much speed as possible through the two corners. No traffic here.

Outback

 * Country:Austrailia
 * Length:4.7 Miles
 * Difficulty:Easy
 * Recommended Car:McLaren F1
 * Notes: First time off the track and onto the road. Here you'll face Land Rovers,Jeeps and Camper Vans driving at you and getting in your way. The track starts in the city before moving into the desert land. Slow down slightly for the jumps or you'll lose control on landing. Watch out near the end when you're surronded by cliff edges - the road splits into two, with a large rock in the middle of the road. Choose left or right early, and there's a chance to cross over sides in the middle.

North country

 * Country:North Europe
 * Length:4.7 Miles
 * Difficulty:Medium
 * Recommended Car:Ferrari F50
 * Notes: Little bit harder this one, although not as hard as the map looks. The four horrible looking bends are actually quite easy provided you don't cut the corner. Elsewhere you'll have trucks,Volvos and 2CVs as traffic. Watch out about 40 seconds into the lap, the track narrows suddenly as you reach a bridge. Also right at the very end of the track the track splits into two with a pillar in the middle.

Pacific spirit

 * Country:Canada
 * Length:5.0 Miles
 * Difficulty:Medium
 * Recommended Car:Ford Indigo
 * Notes: Not that much to comment on this one. A very twisty track,so handling is important here. Traffic includes school buses,trucks and Mercedes.

Mediterrano

 * Country:Greece
 * Length:4.0 Miles
 * Difficulty:Hard
 * Recommended Car:Ford Indigo
 * Notes: Watch out for the very steep hill at the start. Take it too fast and you'll be rolling sideways down. The other main danger comes at the end where you take the wooden bridge. Part of the barrier is missing and it's a long drop down. Land Rovers,Volvo's and VW Beetles will all get in the way.

Mystic peaks

 * Country:Nepal
 * Length: 4.7 Miles
 * Difficulty:Very Hard
 * Recommended Car:Lotus GT1
 * Notes: This one is as hard as it looks on the map. Driving through this track is made more difficult by sloping roads making it harder to turn. Early on watch your speed over crests. Keep to the road surface especially in the snow. While also dodging Jeeps,lorry's,pickups and Camper Vans take care through the middle of the snow section for boxes left by a crashed plane. Be careful at the end of the big wooden bridge. There is a huge drop if you're travelling too fast. Right at the end of the lap there's another middle of the road split be careful.

Monolithic studios

 * Country:USA
 * Length: 4.5 Miles
 * Difficulty:Medium
 * Recommended Car:Ford Indigo
 * Notes: This track is not available at the beginning of the game. To unlock it type "Hollywood" at the main menu. This drive through filmsets does have some optical illusions which look like obstacles and vice-versa (especially in the space stage) Traffic here consists of Limos and Tour Buses. Watch out for: Steep hill in stage 4 four, a near vertical drop at the end of stage 6, a dinosaur on track in stage 9 and a small jump at the end of the lap.
