TOKYO CIRCUITS

Master the Shibuya Speedway, Ouroboros, Sonic Waves, and Tribulation circuits in Midnight Club II. Get expert tips and strategies to win every race.

Alright, let's dive into the Tokyo Circuits in Midnight Club II. These races are going to test your speed and handling, especially with the rain in Shibuya. We've got four tracks to tackle: Shibuya Speedway, Ouroboros, Sonic Waves, and Tribulation. Each one throws different challenges at you, from tight turns to long straights. Get ready to push your rides to the limit!

Shibuya Speedway

This one's a 3-lap race against the RSMC 15. It's raining, but don't let that psych you out too much since most of the track is straight. Your main focus here needs to be on top speed and acceleration. Start by flooring it and heading right at the first checkpoint. You can cut through the park for a little shortcut, then head right again at the next checkpoint. Keep going down the long road until you see the stadium – hang a left there. After the next checkpoint, it's a right turn, followed by another right turn after the following checkpoint. You'll need to navigate a short trench, then head left out of it. The next checkpoint points you into an alley; follow it to the end and then into a tunnel. Once you're out, just go straight to finish the lap.

Ouroboros

Next up is Ouroboros, another 3-lap race, this time against the Vortex 5. This track winds along canals outside a historic castle, with plenty of broad streets where top speed really shines. Kick things off by dropping into the canal and hitting the checkpoint on the wall. Stick to the canal wall for the next couple of checkpoints, then go under a bridge. Keep following the wall for two more checkpoints before getting onto the street on the right. Follow this road along the canal, and when you pass your starting point, veer right to drop into a tunnel for a checkpoint. After the tunnel, look for a fork on the right for another checkpoint. At the next intersection, turn left, cross the bridge, and then pull off onto the grass on the left. You'll see a rock ahead – use it as a ramp to jump towards the next checkpoint and complete the lap.

Sonic Waves

Sonic Waves is a 3-lap race, again against the Vortex 5. This course mixes long, straightaways with some sharp 90-degree turns. Since the Vortex 5 is fast, you'll want to prioritize top speed over cornering ability here. Start by accelerating through the first tunnel. Follow the road, but be ready to slow down before the second tunnel because you need to make a left turn right after it – too fast and you'll miss it. Then comes the column slalom: hit the first checkpoint on the left, then weave to the other side for the next, then back again. After that, turn right onto another street. At the next checkpoint, turn left, then keep turning left into an alley. When you hit the checkpoint that brings you back to the streets, take the right one. Make a left at the next turn, then go right under the tower. At the next checkpoint, turn left, then right at the one after that. Look for glass doors on the corner – crash through them for a shortcut! Take the left fork, keep heading left, and you'll finish the lap.

Tribulation

Finally, we have Tribulation, a 3-lap race against the Saikou. This track is mostly long and straight, so a car with great top speed is your best bet, but be wary of those sudden 90-degree turns. Start by zooming down the road and making a right onto Tokyo's perimeter street. Follow the checkpoints until one signals a right turn down a street. After passing under a highway bridge, make a left into an alley, then another left at the next checkpoint within the alleys. Go around the median and hit the next checkpoint. Make a right turn, then another right when you hit the street. Go under the highway bridge again and turn left onto the sidewalk marked by the next checkpoint. Get back on the street and head left. At the next intersection, turn right, then right again at the next intersection, and a third right onto the street that dips down and up – this should lead you towards the stadium. Drive through the cargo passageways under the stadium. Upon exiting, head left down that road, then make a left at the next intersection. At the checkpoint-marked intersection, hang a left, then a right at the next checkpoint. After clearing that, go left under the train tracks and through the gap between buildings marked by the checkpoint. From there, go left. Get ready to turn right into an alley at the next corner. Follow it to the end, turn left onto the road, and make a right before the bridge. Follow this road, but use the pavement on the right for a shortcut. This road ends, so go right, then get ready to turn left at the next intersection. Finally, rocket down Tokyo's perimeter street. After a right turn on this street, prepare to jump onto a street on the right at a 45-degree angle – this checkpoint is the last one for the lap.
