Get on the NRG to start the challenge (It's in the corner). The object is the same as in the [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas/BMX|BMX]] challenge: maneuver the bike through the red coronas.

You start with 10 seconds on the clock and each corona adds ten seconds to your time. If you get all the coronas before you run out of time, you win the challenge. | You start with 10 seconds on the clock and each corona adds ten seconds to your time.

Drive around the dock across the top of the doors then by the Import/Export sign getting the coronas around the top. Go down the ramp to pick up the next two coronas, then go around inside the dock getting all at ground level, including the one halfway up the wall near the doors. These is all the "easy" ones and you should have about 1:30 on the clock by now. There should be now 7 last high coronas to get which need you to do half-pipe stunts. | Drive around the dock across the top of the doors then by the Import/Export sign getting the coronas around the top.

The basic idea behind hitting the high coronas is to go up the side of the dock, right underneath the corona but ''hitting the wall head-on''. If you try at an angle you will fly past the corona. You also need to have enough speed to get high enough. Here are some methods to position yourself right: | The basic idea behind hitting the high coronas is to go up the side of the dock, right underneath the corona but ''hitting the wall head-on''.

You can position yourself precisely if you understand the layout of the dock. This consists of a half-pipe towards the doors and a half-hemisphere towards the end. If you approach the targets at a 90 degree angle to the wall with enough speed, you will go up under the corona precisely. You just need to know the correct approach path to the 7 high coronas. The centre of the dock is marked out by a black grate along its middle. Next to this is a thin line. If you accelerate along this line from the doors you will get the middle end corona. Now if you go back down into the dock, you can get the next one to it in the corner towards the starting position. To get this, you must drive diagonally across the centre of the half-hemisphere end of the dock towards the wall, up under the corona which is 45 degrees around to the right. | You can position yourself precisely if you understand the layout of the dock.
