A noble, wise, and friendly being, CJ never hesiutates to help others whenever he can, though he detests injustice. The accident that split Yami from him caused his body to become more mechanical than biological, but he has learned to grow from this, taking advantage of his new abilities.> YAMI CJMERL PERSONAL VEHICLE: Shadow Chopper SPECIAL SKILL: Yami Buster (mid-range energy shot attack) BIO: CJMErl's Dark alternate, born from the deepest, darkest parts of his psyche. Despite being rude, crude, lecherous, and brainless as a brick, he has his good points. He is an expert n00bslayer, and boasts formidable strength and healing abilities. However, he tends to take advantage of these abilities in unethical ways whenever he thinks he can get away with it.> BYTE MAN PERSONAL VEHICLE: Bytemobile SPECIAL SKILL: Brain Freeze (temporarily scrambles opponents' controls) BIO: A robot created by Russian robotics professor Dr. Mikhail Cossak and based on the schematics of DLN-000, a.k.a. Proto Man. Byte Man is the head C.E.O. of the CJ-Byte Corp, and leads his company with pride. He is also the only known robot that can actually wield the powers of magick, due to an interdimensional incident that trapped an ancient mage inside his superstructure.> TANK MAN * PERSONAL VEHICLE: Rolling Treads SPECIAL SKILL: BIO: A tank-style robot also created by Dr. Cossack, Tank Man is Byte Man's "younger brother" of sorts. 2nd-in-command of the CJBC Security Force (Yami is his superior), Tank is possibly the ONLY being even MORE unstable and powerful than Yami, only without the libido. He follows the rule of "shoot first, ask questions later", and rarely does he deviate from this ideal.> ARGUS SWIFTMAN PERSONAL VEHICLE: Pyro-GX SPECIAL SKILL: Afterburner (reusable [up to 5x] speed boost) BIO: Founder of Swift Co. and creator of McQuarrie Orbital Station, he nonetheless enjoys a good race to break the monotony of his job. He commands a crack team of technicians, a squad of top-gun starfighter pilots, and owns a large collection of multipurpose spacecraft and mechs.> SUPEROPICON * PERSONAL VEHICLE: Super-Semi SPECIAL SKILL: Long Haul (long-lasting speed boost, able to knock around smaller vehicles) BIO: A wandering Cybertronian, he has spent the last nine million years traveling the universe. He came across Earth, and instantly fell in love with the greenery of the planet. He has since repainted and remodeled his body after a popular comic-book character, vowing to become Earth's guardian.> MINION PERSONAL VEHICLE: Wheel Cycle SPECIAL SKILL: Jump Strike (leaps out of vehicle to attack closest racer) BIO: Long-time friend and second-in-command for Argus, he has been an instrumental person in the creation and operation of the McQuarrie Orbital Station, even though he is only twelve years old. He is commonly seem using a six-armed exo-suit, made to closely resemble General Grevious, the villain from Star Wars III. He also boasts an unusually high endurance and strength when outside his suit, the result of much physical training.> LAZLO FALCONI PERSONAL VEHICLE: Blue Falconi SPECIAL SKILL: Barrel Roll (deflects attacks if timed correctly, doesn't protect against track obstacles) BIO: The owner, founder, and head of the mysterious Falconi Industries--a business partner of the CJ-Byte Corp. that, oddly, does not put out as many products as other companies. A wealthy contributor to the F-Zero X Grand Prix, Lazlo's entire goal in life was to race--unfortunatly, he was never very good at it. The CJ-Byte Corp Grand Prix seemed like his only way to prove himself on the track. Hopefully, in his Blue Falcon mock-up, he can make it!> KASAI FALCONI * PERSONAL VEHICLE: SPECIAL SKILL: BIO:> JV2K PERSONAL VEHICLE: SPECIAL SKILL: BIO:> NARU * PERSONAL VEHICLE: Clubhouse Derby SPECIAL SKILL: BIO:> LIONLANCER PERSONAL VEHICLE: SPECIAL SKILL: Great Sword (mid-range sword slash) BIO:> FATE * PERSONAL VEHICLE: SPECIAL SKILL: BIO:> ECHO HAWK PERSONAL VEHICLE: Air Shoes SPECIAL SKILL: BIO:> SHEZA * PERSONAL VEHICLE: X-treme Gear "Blade" SPECIAL SKILL: Echo Sword (short-range sword slash) BIO:> DRACONIS PERSONAL VEHICLE: Ride Chaser "Dragoon" SPECIAL SKILL: Flame Burst (fireball that causes racers who hit it to spin out) BIO: A dragonic Reploid and ex-Maverick Hunter who was unexpectedly transported to another dimension due to unknown causes. After wandering aimlessly for a brief time, he wound up becoming an enforcer for the CJ-Byte Corp. Security Force. It is said that he helped refine Yami's n00bslaying techniques to dangerous new heights. He's also a bit of a pyromaniac, and a major smartarse.> BLAZE HEATNIX * PERSONAL VEHICLE: Phoenix Wing SPECIAL SKILL: Magma Blade (mid-range throwing knives of fire energy) BIO:> SEAWOLF TROOPER PERSONAL VEHICLE: SPECIAL SKILL: BIO:> ROBOSHI PERSONAL VEHICLE: SPECIAL SKILL: Tongue Grab (lashes out at nearest racer w/ tongue and steals any held items) BIO:> PIRATE CORTEZ PERSONAL VEHICLE: SPECIAL SKILL: BIO:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FULL VEHICLE LIST (* denotes unlockable):Jet Thruster ABILITY: Flight ~STATS~ ACCEL: *** MAX SPEED: **** STRENGTH: ** AGILITY: ***** OFF-ROAD: N/AShadow Chopper ABILITY: PowerPlus ~STATS~ ACCEL: *** MAX SPEED: *** STRENGTH: **** AGILITY: ** OFF-ROAD: **Bytemobile ABILITY: Speed Boost ~STATS~ ACCEL: ***** MAX SPEED: **** STRENGTH: *** AGILITY: *** OFF-ROAD: *Rolling Treads * ABILITY: Terrain Twister ~STATS~ ACCEL: * MAX SPEED: *** STRENGTH: ***** AGILITY: ** OFF-ROAD: *****Pyro-GX ABILITY: Flight ~STATS~ ACCEL: *** MAX SPEED: **** STRENGTH: ** AGILITY: ***** OFF-ROAD: N/ASuper-Semi * ABILITY: Defensor ~STATS~ ACCEL: ** MAX SPEED: *** STRENGTH: ***** AGILITY: *** OFF-ROAD: *****Wheel Cycle ABILITY: PowerPlus ~STATS~ ACCEL: *** MAX SPEED: **** STRENGTH: *** AGILITY: ***** OFF-ROAD: ***Blue Falconi ABILITY: Terrain Twister ~STATS~ ACCEL: *** MAX SPEED: *** STRENGTH: **** AGILITY: ** OFF-ROAD: ***** (Kasai Falconi) ABILITY: ~STATS~ ACCEL: MAX SPEED: STRENGTH: AGILITY: OFF-ROAD: (Jv2k) ABILITY: ~STATS~ ACCEL: MAX SPEED: STRENGTH: AGILITY: OFF-ROAD:Clubhouse Derby * ABILITY: Defensor ~STATS~ ACCEL: ***** MAX SPEED: *** STRENGTH: ** AGILITY: **** OFF-ROAD: ** (Lionlancer) ABILITY: ~STATS~ ACCEL: MAX SPEED: STRENGTH: AGILITY: OFF-ROAD: (Fate) ABILITY: ~STATS~ ACCEL: MAX SPEED: STRENGTH: AGILITY: OFF-ROAD:Air Shoes ABILITY: Speed Boost ~STATS~ ACCEL: *** MAX SPEED: **** STRENGTH: ** AGILITY: ***** OFF-ROAD: ****X-treme Gear "Blade" * ABILITY: Flight ~STATS~ ACCEL: *** MAX SPEED: **** STRENGTH: *** AGILITY: **** OFF-ROAD: N/ARide Chaser "Dragoon" ABILITY: PowerPlus ~STATS~ ACCEL: *** MAX SPEED: ***** STRENGTH: *** AGILITY: *** OFF-ROAD: ***Phoenix Wing * ABILITY: Flight ~STATS~ ACCEL: MAX SPEED: STRENGTH: AGILITY: OFF-ROAD: N/A (Seawolf Trooper) ABILITY: ~STATS~ ACCEL: MAX SPEED: STRENGTH: AGILITY: OFF-ROAD: (Roboshi) ABILITY: ~STATS~ ACCEL: MAX SPEED: STRENGTH: AGILITY: OFF-ROAD: (Pirate Cortez) ABILITY: ~STATS~ ACCEL: MAX SPEED: STRENGTH: AGILITY: OFF-ROAD:CJ-Byte Corp.

Always up for a good race (especially one that includes his pals at the CJ-Byte Corp.), he decides to enroll himself and Minion. Meeting up with the others is a happy event, with much happy talk, fun reminiscing, and obligatory Yami abuse. The day draws closer to the first race and, while on a stray trip to the bathroom, Minion is kidnapped...and replaced with a robotic copy, courtesy of the Seawolves--enemies of Argus Swiftman and McQuarrie as a whole. Unaware of this heinous act, Argus and the others take their places on the day of the first race... RACE 1: Finish in the top three! TRACK: CJ-Byte Corp. HQ OPPONENTS: CJMErl, Yami CJMErl, Byte Man, Lazlo Falconi, Minion, Draconis INTRODUCTION: Still hiding unseen by Argus or his firneds, the Seawolve's Minion-decoy nevertheless has one fatal flaw: unlike the genuine article, this copy cannot leave its' Exo-Suit, which--being Minion's #1 trademark--doesn't raise as much suspicion as expected by the Seawolves. Therefore, the fiendish organization gives the robot its' next set of instructions: to eliminate Argus Swiftman and all those who are close to him... RACE 2: Finish in the top three while staying ahead of Minion! TRACK: Central City 20XX OPPONENTS: CJMErl, Yami CJMErl, Byte Man, Lazlo Falconi, Minion, Draconis INTRODUCTION: Argus and his friends are alarmed at Minion's sudden aggressive behavior on the track. The robot decoy attempts to cover up its' actions by claiming that he let his competitive streak get the better of him, but Swiftman and the others know better. A quick restraning and full-body scan by CJMErl reveals that Minion isn't acting like himself because he isn't Minion at all. The deception revealed, the fake Minion challenges Argus to a special race: One that doesn't end until one of the two is destroyed... RACE 3: Beat the fake Minion! TRACK: Venus Orbital Station "McQuarrie" OPPONENTS: Minion(?) INTRODUCTION: Having successfully beaten the robotic imposter, Argus is suddenly struck with the awful realization: if the robot he just destroyed wasn't actualy Minion, where was his best pal? Suddenly, he recieves a transmission on a pirated broadcast channel: the Seawolves. They reveal to Argus and the others that they have Minion as their hostage, and if they wish to have him remain alive, Argus must LOSE the next race... RACE 4: Finish the race in 2nd or 3rd place! TRACK: Industen HQ OPPONENTS: CJMErl, Kasai Falconi, Tank Man, Superopicon INTRODUCTION: Argus, despite his loss, is not at all ashamed of losing a spot on his rep if it means saving his best friend. Unfortunately, another pirated transmission by the Seawolves reveals to him that he must CONTINUE to lose the races if he wishes to keep Minion alive. Enraged, he is about to comply when CJ rushes up to him, revealing that he was able to trace the last transmission back to its' source. His mind now set, Argus decides to take the fight straight to the vile pirates. Enlisting the help of Yami CJMErl, Byte Man, and Lazlo Falconi, the group begins their travel through the Dimensional Warp Pipe system to where Minion is being held... RACE 5: Head to the Seawolve's Lair! TRACK: Inside the Warp Pipe (Finish in the top three!) OPPONENTS: Yami CJMErl, Byte Man, Lazlo Falconi INTRODUCTION: Having successfully infiltrated the Seawolves' lair, Argus, Yami, Byte, and Lazlo begin their rescue mission. All goes well until Yami--ever the idiot--becomes entranced by a nearby shiny button and pushes it without thinking, tripping the security alarm. Now it has become a race of lives. Will Argus and his friends rescue Minion, or will the Seawolves have the last laugh? RACE 6: Rescue Minion! (Finish in 1st place!) TRACK: Lair of the Seawolves OPPONENTS: Yami CJMErl, Byte Man, Lazlo Falconi, Seawolf Trooper(x3) ENDING: The Seawolves have been beaten, and Minion safe. Despite this overwhelming victory against his perpetual foes, Argus knows deep down that they will be back. Despite this, he knows that he will not be fighting alone, and the thought serves to lift his spirits as he and the others haed back through the Warp Pipe to continue the race... > Draconis ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------UNLOCKABLES INDEX:
