I've been reverse engineering Micro Machines recently and found two new bits of information...

1. The "super skid" cheat can be enabled in another place - a second, identical puddle of orange stuff (I think it's supposed to be honey) near the right side of the Breakfast Bends track.
2. There is also a previously unknown (?) "super grip" cheat enabled by pressing U+1+2 while skidding on *any* breakfast table track. The cheat enabled sound effect usually isn't audible because of the skidding sound effect. This seems to stop you ever skidding (e.g. on milk, oil, sand).

This seems to be all the cheats left undiscovered in the game - there are a lot of them!

Very nice! :D

Love new discovered sms things, especially objects, levels or sprites removed in the final version

Nice find. I suppose a MachinED would work wonders for homebrew racing games (like KiddEd did for platform games).

Hmm, like this? http://www.smspower.org/forums/14846-MicroMachinesLevelEditorIncompleteProject

:D yes!

Found another one! There's a cheat to get two extra lives in Desktop Drop-Off, but this cheat also alters the collision "physics" so the the cars fly away when they collide with you. Kind of weird :)
