Master Stephane's races in Midnight Club II. Learn strategies for Roundabout Run and Over and Under, including recommended cars and navigating treacherous city streets and tunnels.

To race Stephane, you must first defeat Julie.

Roundabout Run

Recommended Cars: Boost, Bryanston V, Schneller V8

In this race, you have to go to several roundabouts around the city and hit all the checkpoints at each of them. The race is good for the Schneller V8, since it's mostly a bunch of long straightaways, giving it plenty of room to get up to speed. A rough diagram of the roundabout locations and a suggested order is provided:

         2     6        N
                       ---
     1      3           |
                5
         4

You'll be able to hit all the checkpoints efficiently, and the last roundabout you hit before the finish will be the one closest to the finish.

Over and Under

Recommended Cars: Boost, Bryanston V, Fripon X

This race is in the rain, so handling could be tricky. However, you'll be in tunnels for a good part of the race, so it won't be an issue there. After the start, use a Slip-stream Turbo or a nitro to motor up the hill. At the next checkpoint, make a quick left turn onto a street going down. Be careful here, because the uneven road could throw you off course.

Drive down this road, and watch out for the police roadblock you'll encounter. Turn into the alley on the right side of the road after the roadblock, marked with a checkpoint. Get ready to make another right turn at the next checkpoint into the catacombs. When you reach a large chamber at the end of the catacombs tunnel, make a right turn into another tunnel. At the next room, make a quick right turn.

When you exit the catacombs, keep going straight and hit the glass pyramid to jump over a building to the next checkpoint. Just down the road, look for your next checkpoint marking a tunnel on the left. Be careful entering the tunnel, because it can be easy to flip over when you're going down. Drive down the tunnel, and go into the alley across the street from the tunnel's exit. Pass through another police roadblock, and turn left when you can.

Go back into the tunnel on the right side of the road when you see it again. Hang a right at the first fork in the tunnel, then go left at the second fork in the tunnel. When you exit the tunnel, go into the alley across the street from the exit. From here, follow the trail of checkpoints up the hilly streets again. Jump down from the east side of the hill to get to the alley to the freeway. Hit the finish line at the freeway.
