Rumble Racing is a mini-game in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep which can be played at Disney Town or Mirage Arena. It consists of a fairly simple race through Disney Town on your Keyblade Glider, and includes shortcuts, speed boosts, ramps, and attacks from other racers.
Story
After receiving a Disney Town Passport from Ventus, Terra stops by at Disney Town. Just then, he sees a group of Unversed on the racing course of "Rumble Racing". He attempts to go after them only to almost be run over by Pete in his vehicle, posing as "Captain Dark". Luckily, Queen Minnie alerts Terra just in time for him to avoid it. The queen, Chip, and Dale suggest to him to participate in the race as a means to stop the Unversed without breaking the rules.
Participating in the race allows Terra to discover that he may not need to give in to the darkness in order to achieve his goals, that following the rules may give him the same reward. He also receives votes from Chip and Dale for the Million Dreams Award.
Strategy
To succeed in Rumble Racing your main focus should be to go through as many booster rings as you can, as well as to avoid as many tornadoes as possible. Courses also contain shortcuts only accessible via booster rings.
- When starting the race, push X right the moment "Go" appears on the screen at the beginning of the race. Doing such will grant you a speed boost.
- When you see "Locked On" or "Danger" at the bottom of your screen, press Triangle to defend yourself.
- Throughout the each course there are shields you may pick up to protect you from other racers as well as tornadoes. As an added bonus the shields hurt other racers on contact, acting like a regular attack.
- While playing as Terra or Ventus if you lock onto another racer and attack successfully you will gain a temporary speed boost. Aqua doesn't have this same speed boost but she has a longer ranged attack to compensate for it.
