Fatal Inertia/Weapons

Fatal Inertia includes random items from weapon pads found during races. These can be used to heighten their performance or act as non-lethal tools to hinder foes. Most of the weapons available can be projected in front as primary fire or shot from behind as secondary fire. Some can also be attached from the rear to boost speed. Pressing the down button allows players to discard weapons in favor of better ones. Stronger weapons are usually acquired by competitors placed in the last four ranks while those in the first four are limited to the basics to maintain their position.
