How to Play Virtua Racing
Quick start
Choose Big Forest, Bay Bridge, or Acropolis and reach every checkpoint before time runs out. Brake before tight corners, steer smoothly, and accelerate once the car is pointed toward the exit. Use automatic gears while learning the tracks, then switch to manual transmission for finer control.
Controls
D-pad Left/Right: Steer. D-pad Down: Shift up; D-pad Up: Shift down with manual transmission. A: Brake. B: Accelerate. C: Cycle the four VR camera views. Start: Pause. Controls can be reassigned in Options.
