Auto Race pinball rules and strategy

The goal

Advance the three cars with numbered targets and rollovers. Race wins light a gobble hole for Special, whose replay value depends on each car’s first or second win.

  1. Advance a car: Hit a numbered target or rollover to advance the car with that number along its playfield track. The first car to reach the finish line lights one gobble hole for Special.

  2. Earn a second win: Keep advancing a car that has won its first race. Reaching the finish line again puts that car in the second-win position.

  3. Collect Special: Send the ball into the lit Special gobble hole. It awards one replay for each car in the first-win position and three for each car in the second-win position. The hole ends that ball.

  4. Light the bumpers: Advance the cars until all three line up at the same track position, other than Start. This lights two pop bumpers.
