RETURN

Sends the player to a menu when Start is pressed. The following values, representing menu IDs, are available:

• 0: Crashes the game.
• 1: Plays the opening movie, and returns the player to mode selection.
• 2: Returns the player to the main menu. This is the default option.
• 3: Goes to the Load menu.
• 4: Goes to the config menu; highly likely to crash the game.
• 5: Goes to the car selection; however, the background and the text color are all black and the car itself does not appear. If you attempt to leave the menu, the game soft-hangs with only menu header and the icons for Shop and memory card.
• 6: Would have sent you to the course selection menu, however nothing works; only a checkerboard background and two black outline arrows appear.
• 7: Goes to the shop menu. If you go to Parts or Settings however, all options before the choices for manual transmission gear ratios will have corrupted or missing text.
• 8: Goes to the Setting menu of the shop (where purchased parts are equipped). The text corruption issue applies here.
• 9: Goes to the Parts menu of the shop (where parts can be purchased). The text corruption issue also applies here.
• 10: Loads the debug menu again. This is in fact the menu ID for the debug menu.
• 11: Goes to the Key Configuration menu, but only the controller appears on screen. You can make changes, and pressing O after it returns you to the main menu without the background or the car (until you select a car; but even then, the car name will not appear), but the game operates normally after that.
• 12: Goes to the race start confirmation, without the track map appearing. The game practically locks up here.
• 13: Locks up the game in the loading screen.
• 14: Goes to the car name editor. Since there's no car chosen, nothing will appear. Attempting to leave Config menu after leaving the name editor causes only the Shop and Memory Card icon to appear, locking up the game (same situation with 5).
• 15: Forcibly starts a race, without sound. If the race is ended for any reason, the game hangs.
• 16: Forcibly starts a race. If used in Link Race mode, the game will hang if the player cancels the Link Wait portion.
• 17: Displays the ending movie (cannot be skipped), then displays the opening movie and returns the player to the mode selection. All settings (such as key settings and car names) and progress will be reset to default in process.

RIVAL CAR

Cannot be changed; for some reason the MY CAR and RIVAL CAR IDs are always the same.

SPU BGM

Basically, a sound test for songs played natively from the console's SPU. There are ten menu songs to play from 0 to 9; sound ID 9 is silent. Use Circle or Triangle to play and Cross or Triangle to stop.

BG MAP

Changes the background. IDs range to 0 to 11 (10 appear to be unused). Circle moves the background to right, Cross moves the background upwards, Square moves the background to left, and Triangle moves the background downwards. Diagonal movements are allowed.

MOVIE

Plays a car-specific FMV, each of them contains commentary about a specific car. IDs 0-8 correspond to playable cars (see MY CAR), while ID 9 corresponds to the Tokyo Ring Line course.
