Mega Man Battle & Chase/Parts

Whenever you win a race, you can swap one of your four parts with a part from a defeated competitor. You can swap your body part only if you already own the three other parts of that same car.

Tires

Tires affect three attributes: (1) the sharpness of turns, (2) the speed on different terrains, (3) the recovering after hitting a mine.

Part name	Part type	Car	Description
All-Round Tire	Tire	Mega Man	Standard tires that are easy to control.
Non-Drift Tire	Tire	Roll	Does not slow down on sand.
Sharp Tire	Tire	Protoman	Allows you to turn more sharply.
Almighty Tire	Tire	Bass	Despite their name, these are identical to Mega Man's tires.
Press Tire	Tire	Guts Man	Travel faster on sandy road; allows you to drive over mines without skidding.
On-Road Tire	Tire	Quick Man	Goes faster on road but slows down extremely on sand surfaces.
Non-Slip Tire	Tire	Ice Man	Prevents you from spinning out when taking sharp turns on ice. Helpful in certain areas.
Fuuma Tire	Tire	Shadow Man	Recovers quickly from spins and skids.
E-Guard Tire	Tire	Napalm Man	Not affected by deceleration zones; faster on sand roads.
Hopper Tire	Tire	Spring Man	Automatically jumps mines. Very handy.
Ultimate Tire	Tire	Dr. Wily	Immune to deceleration zones, ice, and mines, but slows down on sand and water.
Blade Tire	Tire	Black Joe course	Normal tires with a twist: running the tires' blades into an enemy car will slash its tires. This basically causes the other car to slow down and begin smoking for a few moments, similar to being hit with a Lightning Bolt or going over deceleration zones. Your opponent is pretty much grounded for the duration of this, and cannot steer himself.
Supreme Tire	Tire	Duo	These are immune to sand and mines, though vulnerable to ice and deceleration zones.

Engines

Engines determine maximum speed and acceleration. Some engines have special attributes.

Part name	Part type	Car	Description
Twin Engine	Engine	Mega Man	Average speed and acceleration.
Follow Engine	Engine	Roll	Max speed increases automatically if you're not in first place.
L-Blow Engine	Engine	Protoman	High top speed, but low acceleration.
Double Engine	Engine	Bass	Standard engine that is well-balanced.
Slope Engine	Engine	Guts Man	Performs better on slopes than on flat surfacing.
Dash Engine	Engine	Quick Man	Average max speed; good acceleration.
Aurora Engine	Engine	Ice Man	Above-average top speed engine with very powerful brakes.
Idaten Engine	Engine	Shadow Man	Decent acceleration, but overall weak top speed.
Device Engine	Engine	Napalm Man	Acceleration plates last longer when using this. Handy.
Happy Engine	Engine	Spring Man	Good acceleration and top speed but slows down more than most when going uphill.
Nova Engine	Engine	Dr. Wily	Once it reaches a speed of about 300 or so, you begin rapidly accelerating, nearing top speed very quickly.
Retro Engine	Engine	Black Devil course	Good acceleration, and a fair top speed. Tapping the X button will grant a temporary boost. This boost can be override by any other type of boost, though.
Final Engine	Engine	Duo	Normal acceleration, incredible top speed, and doesn't lose traction going uphill.

Wings

All wings have different, special characteristics.

Part name	Part type	Car	Description
Starter Wing	Wing	Mega Man	Enhances your acceleration power.
Feather Wing	Wing	Roll	Enhances your cornering abilities.
Hi-Speed Wing	Wing	Protoman	Increases maximum speed.
Accel Wing	Wing	Bass	Increases acceleration.
Power Wing	Wing	Guts Man	Has great resistance to crashing.
Rocket Wing	Wing	Quick Man	All statistics are increased, but effect wears off 60 seconds after the beginning of the race. It also helps you get a Rocket Start more easily.
Blizzard Wing	Wing	Ice Man	Enables you to maneuver when in the air (otherwise you just keep flying straight until you hit something).
Hayate Wing	Wing	Shadow Man	Special ability gauge fills up faster.
Counter Wing	Wing	Napalm Man	Increases number of points you get for destroying obstacles by 1.
Lucky Wing	Wing	Spring Man	Increases your chances of getting a rare item from the roulette.
Barrier Wing	Wing	Dr. Wily	Forms a barrier shielding the car from other racers' attacks, though after a bit of pounding, the shield will collapse.
Sky High Wing	Wing	Black 4-Roaders course	Leaves the car every so often and tries to seek out your main competitor. If it finds him or her, the wing hovers over the enemy's car and lifts it off the ground, eventually stopping it dead for a brief moment before the wing drops the enemy and returns to its owner.
Maximum Wing	Wing	Duo	Seems to enhance speed performance.

Bodies

Bodies determine the two special techniques that a car can use.

Part name	Part type	Car	Description
Rush Body	Body	Mega Man	Use the Mega Buster and Charge Shots.
Beat Body	Body	Roll	Jump and Spin Attack.
Shield Body	Body	Protoman	Shield and Proto Strike.
Treble Body	Body	Bass	Bass Buster and Bass Blast.
Twin Arm Body	Body	Guts Man	Super Arm and Earthquake.
Turbo Body	Body	Quick Man	Slide Dash and Quick Turbo.
Polar Body	Body	Ice Man	Ice Pillars and Ice Slasher.
Ninja Body	Body	Shadow Man	Shadow Blade and Smoke Screen.
Full Metal Body	Body	Napalm Man	Mines and Napalm Bombs.
Turn Punch Body	Body	Spring Man	Turn Punch and Spring Attack.
Bone Head Body	Body	Dr. Wily	Enables you to fire shots like Wily does.
Hammer Body	Body	Black Troop course	Its non-charged attack swings a giant spiked ball on a chain around the car. Fully charged, it fires the spiked ball forward which explodes on impact and bounces all other cars slightly (similar to Guts Man's Earthquake attack). The fully-charged attack can be thrown in any direction (even backward) by pressing the desired direction the control pad while firing. Hitting an opponent solidly enough with spiked balls can make him dizzy.
Giga Fist Body	Body	Duo	Two fists fly out and attack.

Secret techniques

These techniques are learned whenever you beat one of the Black challengers.

Part name	Part type	Car	Description
Rocket Start	Technique	Black Joe	You can use the Rocket Start if you hit the accelerator right when the first light comes on.
Special Item	Technique	Black 4-Roaders	Press down three times, and you can get rid of an item.
Corners Technique	Technique	Black Devil	You can drift sooner by tapping the opposite direction of the curve for a split second instead of just holding the button.
Special Move	Technique	Black Team	Press down, then up on the D-pad, and at the same time taunt while running over a mine for a speed boost.
