Faster cars
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "cars.ini" file in the "cars" sub-folder in the game directory. Change the "mass=" value to "100" for a faster car.
Open the folder of a powerful car, such as the F1, F50, etc. Copy the "car.ini" file from here and paste it over the original "car.ini" file of a slower car in its own folder (for example, the Elise). This instantly gives that car the speed and handling characteristics of the better vehicle. Note: Back up the original "car.ini" file of the slower car in the event that you want to revert it back to its standard settings.
Ferrari F50
Lead a single race, full grid, advanced, for eight laps to unlock the NFS edition of the Ferrari F50.
Hack Out Cars and Tracks
The following will alter your game files. It is highly suggested that you make a back-up copy of your files before you alter them beyond all recognition.
You can unlock all the cars and tracks by reducing the price of locked cars/tracks to either 0 or a very low value. To do this, simply use notepad to edit the cars.ini file in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\EA Games\Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2\Edit Cars\
You can do the same for the Tracks.ini file in the directory
C:\Program Files\EA Games\Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2\Edit Cars\tracks\
When you reload the game you can see the results.
