Quick Select
When the computer is choosing what parts to take, press the A button rapidly. This will make the computer select faster. The good part about this code is that if the computer is choosing from you, you have a better chance of them taking nothing.Trade Parts
Ever wonder how you could get a CPU winner to trade you something for something when he takes a part away from you? Well, go to the title page and press start when you turn on your system and select "OPTIONS". Move your control stick until "PARTS OPTIONS" is highlighted and press the A button twice. Leave "STEAL PARTS" on and turn "TRADE PARTS/SWAP PARTS" on. Now, the CPUs will steal one of your parts (and sometimes none) and no matter what will give you something of his.Turbo Start
Right before starting the race, press the gas button when the last light is about to turn green. If you are playing one player mode and seem to have a hard time starting off, rev the engine until it gets close to 5. Once it starts you off, you should get a faster start.Manufacturer: THQ

Description:
Based on the toy line of miniaturized cars, Penny Racers is cutesy kart racing with a twist. Rather than selecting a car with predetermined characteristics as in most games of this genre, you customize a generic Racer with almost 100 parts in eight different categories. Starting off with the worst possible parts, you must win races to get better parts, which you "relieve" the losers of; this can lead to some serious cutthroat action when it comes to multiplayer games. High replay value is further upped by the game's "New Track" option, which allows you to create your very own tracks.
The downside to all these custom options is the fact that a Memory Pack is more of a necessity than a "supported" accessory. Without one, you can't save any Racer or track data, and it would be a real shame to lose that Japanese noodle shop truck with the off-road tires and roof-mounted cannon when you turn off your Nintendo. --Joe Hon
