Drag

"'Look for different ways around obstacles. The sky's the limit...' - In-game description"Drag is the eight career mode race from Midnight Club II.

Description
In this race, the player has to win against the likes of Angel's father, Diego. Though the race takes place in the Los Angeles river, to the user's surprise, there are still a few minor obstructions. After succeeding in landing the first jump, visible are a small collection of cars. They face each other, and at the center, an oil barrel ablaze with fire. This could potentially mimic the group of tramps that appear at the unfinished railroad in Saint Mark's, a neighborhood in Grand Theft Auto III. The other side is behold to yet another unique spectacle, where a group of sedans are seen speeding along the incline, as if having a race of their own. If the player wishes to follow them, they come to a halt right before the large structure dividing the river. The race concludes near an industrial building, with a bus appearing to block the protagonist's path. Once completed, the player unlocks a glossy purple 1971 Bestia.

Tips

 * The Torrida, the Citi and the Monstruo are suggested for this race because of their fast acceleration (although the Monstruo is the fastest), since Diego's 1971 Bestia has a somewhat slow 0-60 acceleration of 3.033, with a very poor 0-120 acceleration of 12.966.
 * Watch out for the jump towards to the finish, since it can make the car crash into a wall and therefore losing the race. Drive off the ramp and go to the finish instead of jumping straight to the finish. However, with some practice, this can be used for the player's advantage, but they must still be careful.
 * Try driving on one of the two higher ramps or one of the two lower ramps that lead to the checkpoint. Also try to knock off Diego so that he can miss the ramps and crash into a wall.
