Rumble Racing is a PlayStation 2 racing video game from Electronic Arts.

Each car has three types of styles:

Rookie
Pro
Elite

Each car will mostly change in paint job and form. Some cars will have a lot of changes, some will not. Either way, each car is an excellent choice to use to win.

To unlock Pro and Elite the player has to win championship races. It gets harder as play progresses, but new cars can be unlocked along the way. To unlock cars, the player must have a score of first place. Higher points are awarded for first, second or third place. Placement also determines where the player is placed in subsequent races.

Power-ups help the player win or get pay-back on other cars. Power-ups include:

Invincible - protects the players car from harm
Oil bomb - makes other cars lose traction
Bomb - blows up other cars if close enough
Snow ball - freezes other cars so they can't turn
Landslide - rocks that jut out of the front of the player's car
Gas tank - slows down other cars
Punch - a orange force field that impact other cars out of control
Shock wave - force that knocks other cars out of control
Boost - speeds up the player's car
Tornado - sucks up other cars for a short time

Tornados are normally found in despeate times, such as when the player's car is in eighth place.

The player can also lay some of the items down behind them, like bombs, snow blalls, landslide, gas tank, tornado. If the player lays it behind them, they will stay there until someone hits it. The player can get caught in some of their own items.
