==Slick Star==
==Slick Star==
Has adequate speed stats, but terrible traction. It slides a lot, hence the name.

However if you learn to master it, it can be the best star in the game. To use it correctly, tap "A" as fast as you can when you want to turn. You won't slow down much, but will execute the turn more smoothly than otherwise.

==Bulk Star==
==Bulk Star==
Uses Boost as fuel, requiring the player to charge when the boost meter is empty. Has an incredible top speed for its girth, and has high HP and Defense stats. Because of its slow acceleration and constant thirst of boost, it is better suited for deathmatches than races.

It also has a weird glitch that can be easily exploited. Go off any ledge at moderate-high speed and then start pressing {{gc|A}} really fast to see what happens.

==Swerve Star==
==Swerve Star==
Accelerates to its top speed almost immediately, but virtually cannot turn, requiring the player to stop and pivot to change direction. It handles fluidly while gliding. It is better suited for drag racing, where turning is not required. However on tracks where there is a halfpipe, it will sometimes automatically match the turns inside the pipe.

==Hydra==
==Hydra==
City Trial only. One of the legendary machines. It can be used in City Trial when the player has assembled it by finding its three pieces. Hydra has the highest Offense in the game (Which basically means it can blow up stuff real easy). Like the Bulk Star, it uses Boost as fuel. It is also the fastest vehicle in the game, with a top speed of 150 mph. Hydra can be used in City Trial Free Run when the player has filled in the "Hydra Parts X, Y, and Z" boxes in the City Trial checklist.

==Flight Warpstar==
==Flight Warpstar==
City Trial Free Run only. A prototype Warpstar with uprgraded gliding capabilities. It is the second-best glider in the game, bested by Dragoon. It is no different than the normal Warpstar in other areas.
