Act 1

Fat Blokes in Nappies

T.T. Trophy: Complete the challenge in under 1 minute and 10 seconds.

Unhappy Landings

Jiggy: Finish with at least 250 points.
T.T. Trophy: Finish with at least 500 points.

Act 2

Burnin' Rubber

T.T. Trophy: Finish in first place in under 3 minutes and 10 seconds.

T.T. Trophy: Complete the challenge in under 1 minute and 30 seconds.

Tumblin' Domies

T.T. Trophy: Knock over at least 40 dominoes.

T.T. Trophy: Complete the challenge in under 2 minutes and 10 seconds.

Heavy Balls and Hairy Pits

Brown Bears Can't Jump

T.T. Trophy: Finish with at least 5 points.
