__________
/ Upgrades \

After the races, you win 'Power Ups' (how many you get depends on the 
results of the race) to powerup on many things!

Acceleration: This upgrades how fast you can speed up at the beginning of 
the race and when you crash.

   Top Speed: This upgrades on how fast you can go!

    Traction: This upgrades on fast you can go through in the curves. The 
higher your traction is, the less you will skid in the turns and curves.

     Gearing: This upgrades on how well you can manuever and keep your speed 
in the hills. It also helps in the water, mud, and bridges.

Power Burst: Power bursts give you a small burst of speed during a race. You 
can keep 99 power bursts at one time.

Power Winch: Power winches give a big help. When you are stuck in the mud or 
water, you can use a power winch to escape from the obstacle. You will 
return to the last checkpoint. You can keep 99 power winches at one time.
