Flashing Lights
After you enter your initials in the "Hot Times" screen, if you go all the way to the bottom to where the metal rollers are and hold the Left direction for about 35 seconds, the face of one of the programmers will appear and say "I love this job". After he says this, when you are racing any course with either the Police Car or the School Bus, if you press the Brake twice, then the Gas once, the lights will flash for as long as you hold the Gas. As soon as you let go, the lights go off. This code will only work if you are using the Police Car or the School Bus. It will not work with any other car.
