Racing Cups

Racing Cups are tournaments in the Crash Racing Series that allow players to participate in a series of four races with an accumulating score for each race. At the end of the tournament, the racer with the highest score gets crowned the winner.

Appearances
Racing Cups have appeared in every racing game except Crash Tag Team Racing.

Crash Team Racing
In this game, cups allowed for up to four players to race together with a total of eight racers. If every cup was won at a certain difficulty, a Battle Arena became available to use. Winning on easy difficulty awarded the player with Parking Lot, medium unlocking The North Bowl, and hard unlocking Lab Basement.

Wumpa Cup
The easiest cup in Crash Team Racing is the Wumpa Cup, which features the tracks Crash Cove, Tiger Temple, Blizzard Bluff, and Coco Park.

Crystal Cup
The Crystal Cup is slightly more difficult than the Wumpa Cup. It features Roo's Tubes, Dingo Canyon, Dragon Mines, and Sewer Speedway.

Nitro Cup
The Nitro Cup features a hard set of tracks, including Mystery Caves, Papu's Pyramid, Cortex Castle, andTiny Arena.

Cups made a reappearance in Crash Nitro Kart, where they functioned in a similar manner to the cups in Crash Team Racing. The main difference, however, is that these cups lack a fourth race.
