How to unlock the Yeeee HAW! achievement in Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled - Definitive Guide

Personal Experience

As I am one of the first to achieve this I believe it's only right for me to post a solution to help others. Just for the record... I played this game religiously as a child and mastered these strategies from a young age on the original platform. Practice and persistence is key. If anything in my eyes I feel Crash Cove was the hardest level for me as this took me nearly two hours cry every other level only took 3-10 attempts. I would advise if you are new to CTR then play through to get 100% on one save then start from scratch for this on another one. If you mastered the boost years ago in PS1 and you have no problem today with boosting then do what I did and go for this first.

Solution

You only need to get the trophies and keys. No need to collect anything else. 16 trophies and 4 boss keys in total.

This achievement is no laughing matter if you are new to CTR. If you played CTR back in the day this is still a tough challenge. However it is very doable. Take a lot of time to practice getting used to the 3 Perfect Max Boost method. No small Good boosts will do on this difficulty. Once you can nail them no problem then start trying to keep them constant from boost to boost to boost hitting all three perfectly into another three and so on and so on. Also Shortcuts are essential. If you ain't using them then you are making this way harder on yourself.

Kicking your kart into overdrive with Sacred Fire and Ultra Sacred Fire

When you go over a ground booster pad or a ramp booster you speedometer will be in the red area. This is Sacred Fire. Now for Ultra Sacred Fire. This is only available on a handful of tracks in the game where you hit super speed ramps. E.g. Hot Air Skyway, Cortex Castle, Oxide Station. Your speedometer should now be maxed out and your exhaust should be blue. You will be going faster than normal Scared Fire. This the fastest you can possibly go however getting constant Perfect Boosts will keep this boost going and also Sacred Fire going as long as you don't hit anything or miss boosts. This is due to a reserve boost system built into the game. This is incredibly difficult to handle and you will have to have a good knowledge of powersliding. As long as you have flames coming out of the back of your kart then the boost is still active. You could even keep this a whole lap. In some rare cases the whole race on tracks like Roos Tubes. Tracks like Hot Air Skyway and Cortex Castle are some great maps to try this out. Hot Air Skyway... Just before the big jump get a Triple Perfect Boost just before and then immediately hit the jump and take the shortcut route, try and land on a powerslide by landing on an angle and get a cheeky powerslide Perfect Boost through the shortcut and watch yourself fly with great speed. Cortex Castle is kind of the same. Whether you took the shortcut or not before the big jump near the end, try to get at least one Perfect Boost before the jump. Jump at the top of the ramp and try and land into a powerslide. Try and slide through the spider area and keep going all the way round to the finish line with boosts. This takes a lot of practice but will come naturally after doing it for a while. There are video breakdowns on YouTube on how to do this if you prefer video guides. Try to practice these in Time Trial mode. To be honest if you can beat N. Tropy's times in Time Trial then this should be a piece of cake. He also shows you a lot of shortcuts which is also key to victory.

Power Ups

As for boxes and power ups I can't really suggest much as the game screwed me over alot with boxes and power ups sometimes. The best advice I can give is use the Clock and Homing Orb on huge jump areas where the AI are gonna miss the boost jump or fall to their death. Timing is key with these power ups. Don't waste them because you are in last. AI's are still reasonably fast whilst affected by these.

Characters

I experimented with a few characters and realised alot of them are useful on certain tracks to others. My personal favourites were Intermediate and Advance characters. Don't be afraid to experiment yourself as the Advanced characters are amazingly fast but are a nightmare for turning on very tight maps.

The bosses can be a pain as they are still fast and you need to be on point with your boosts but from my experience once you are in front of them and keep doing the above method for boosts then they are a piece of cake.

This achievement unlocks as soon as you beat Oxide.
The first time you race him.

PS. This achievement is super easy compared to the GASMOXIAN SLUG achievement where you have to beat all Oxides ghost times on all tracks.

I hope these methods help along with information given. Please feel free to give a thumbs up and if there is anywhere I can improve this solution please comment before any negative feedback. Thank you.

To clarify, do you only need to beat Oxide the first time? You race Oxide twice in the game.

You only need to collect 16 trophies, beat all bosses and beat Oxide the First time (Only once). No need to collect everything else and race him again. I will add that to the solution.

Yes in the character select screen it will say All Characters at the top. If you press RB you can switch to Beginner, Intermediate and Advance select screens.

You weren't kidding about Crash Cove. Took me about 2 hours then beat the next three tracks and boss in about 45 minutes total. Still hard, but way easier than the 1st race for some reason lol.

I think Tiny is a good bet on most tracks apart from ones with sharp turns (Oxide station is an example)

I have used Crash the whole time. Crash Cove was hardest by far. Cortex Castle 2nd hardest as I needed to learn how to maintain the ramp's super boost for a long time to beat it. Haven't had trouble with any of the rest yet.

Hot Air Skyway was a royal pain for me. I had to change to Intermediate AKA crash or Cortex for it. Cortex Castle is abit tough but if you time the spiders and landing and 3 power boosts with the shortcut and land 1-2 power boosts after jump you should keep the boost til after the start line of you bunny hop the corners. Keep going man. You can do it

Question. When trying to complete this game, should we do a play through on easy first and 100% it? After, go on hard and do the 16 races and 4 bosses only?

You need only cups, no tokens or relicts. You can complete 100% on easy an after than hard, or vice versa. Its doesn't matter

If you can do Nefarious tropy trial you can simply beat this mode. I suggest u practice on those hence making progress toward time trial cheevo and them do hard mode . I am lazy watching guide and by doing n tropy you can see all kind of shortcuts he uses and make hard a cake walk. I finished it in 2 hours really. The firstcrace is gonna be your doom though

This is just for people who want to give up. Dont! This is really easy. Just practice boosting techniques and learn about sacred fire and ultimate sacred fire.... two nights ago i did the first race after 20 min with immense luck from bonuses. And was stuck ok the second race for 15 mins and i quit because it was 5 AM my time. The other day i did N tropy trials. When i came bavk to hard they could not even reach me! Trust me guys . Oxide trials are hard for sure but the only hard race in hard mode imo is the first and blizzard bluff just because of its tricky shortcut

Just for the people struggling with this: I was able to beat almost every circuit with a heavy character (Dingodile), but at the end I had to change to Fake Crash because I was having some issues in the sharpest turns.

Just a heads up if you are planning on finishing this game 100% I would recommend doing the Gasmoxian Slug achievement first. After doing that your track knowledge will make this achievement an absolute doddle

I agree with McGuiirre. What I have been doing is completing the oxide times for a couple levels, then move to hard mode in adventure since they are fresh in my memory. Crash Cove took me 2 tries, lol (won by like 13 seconds). As for items since I can pull away I hold them back to block incoming missiles as they are the only reason I would lose. Also take any shortcuts as they do not, which makes it easier.

If you complete the Oxide times, this will be a joke for you. I did every level first try and I was awful before spending hours and hours doing the Oxide times. Learn how to U Turn and maintain reserves and you’ll have no problem doing this. Some advice is to use the D-Pad instead of the stick, it makes changing directions a lot quicker.

Just updated solution saying about trophies and keys to stop people asking in the comments. Keep trying everyone. It is a hard challenge. Also please state as to why you are voting negative. If you can't do it, it's not my problem. The advice is there and sometimes luck has to be on your side. Also well done people who I have been speaking to in comments throughout their journey. clap

Hey guys.. you come in first place in the races and gain the trophy for that race. 16 races and 4 bosses later you beat Oxide and pop achievement. There's no need for CTR tokens or Relics. Only trophies.

CF GaMeBReaKeR is not joking Crash Cove is diabolical.

Fighterx93chipp I tried with Intermediate as Crash and Cortex for a while but Crash Cove is too rough. I ended up using Tiny. In fact I used Tiny a large percentage of my playthrough.

Don't forget thumbs up guys if this helped smile

You only have to finish Adventure Mode; that is, get 16 trophies and beat Oxide the first time.

The AI on Hard is pretty ruthless. They have a large base speed increase from Normal, are far more aggressive with items and are able to get items such as clocks and warp orbs which is not possible on the lower difficulties. If you're a new player I would highly recommend not starting it on Hard as you're going to have a bad time as the gap between Normal and Hard is staggering. I didn't even do it until I was more experienced and I was pretty good at the original game. The one saving grace is that the AI still doesn't take shortcuts (aside from Hot Air Skyway) so if you're reasonably experienced with the game and have mastered drift boosting you can tear away from the AI using the shortcuts fairly easily. As such the harder tracks are the ones with fewer shortcuts like Crash Cove (which is probably the hardest track in the base game on Hard and it's probably the very first one) which may take a few attempts if you get unlucky with the item spam.

Good luck!

The game has two game modes: Classic and Nitro-Fueled
Only Nitro-Fueled has a difficulty mode.

You only need to go through 16 story tracks . Tests etc. do not need to be completed. The trophy will be given after the final boss Nitros Oxide .
But at this level, the tests will be difficult, so it is advisable to complete the Adventure mode twice in order to get the trophy at 100%.

Enter the cheat code for Penguin Penguin (The cheat code is listed in the tips above). I passed it on a difficult level. A lot here depends on one thing: your gaming skills in these types of races, knowledge of the tracks, the use (timing) of boosts and knowledge of shortcuts on the tracks. 2nd: Hopes for pure randomness that the AI ​​can occasionally give in to you.

Tips: 1st: If you are ahead in first place. Try to keep it until the very finish. It happens that the AI ​​knocks you down as soon as it is next to you (there is a small chance of winning). Or it stupidly allows you to even get ahead, even by a large margin. If you are knocked out and you have a fairly large lead over the AI, then there is still a chance to win. The main thing is to quickly gain speed in flight. Boost, boost and boost again.

2nd: If you are hit and have 2 more laps left. This seems like there is still a chance to win, but here you should also hope for a random one: A) If the AI ​​starts to become stupid and give in. B) Randomly from boxes. He hopes that they will suddenly give you some kind of usefulness. For example, 2 masks will appear in a row. Being in last place, the game will begin to help you in every possible way to win the race. But even this help may be of little use. But maybe you’ll be lucky enough to catch up and overtake just before the finish line.

3rd: Immediately as soon as the AI ​​takes the first boxes. He will immediately start throwing everything he finds in the boxes at you. And thus you will find yourself in last place. This may even work to your advantage. As I said above. In the last places, masks or an electric ball may fall out. Try to save them until the last lap. And apply half a lap before the finish, but preferably in about 4th or 5th place, which will give a greater chance of winning. And also don’t forget to have all 10 Wumpa fruits in stock for the duration and lethality of a particular weapon. The same masks or ball.

4th: Try to almost NEVER ride closely behind an AI, or even being almost behind them, 2, 3 meters away from them. In 90% of cases he will throw something at you from behind. For the most part, try to stay somewhere to the side of them. This tactic, of course, does little to save you from any missiles.

The tracks I had problems with were: Crash Cove, Cortex Castle, N.Gin Labs. On other routes, and even battles with bosses did not cause such problems as the above.

To add to drWho, once you have completed a track on the Time Trial, go to the campaign on hard and complete that track. Then the next one and so on. This way, muscle memory will respond better to a specific track than if you first go through all the time trials and then remember the same tracks again in Advanture mode

If you need platinum, do this trophy after time trials, because crushing opponents with a skill is much easier and faster than hoping for any luck.
