## Transcript

Okay, buddy, pull over. Let's learn some high-speed pinball. All right, off the bat, you can sometimes plunge around the side ramp like this, and anytime you hit the side ramp, it will spot you traffic light targets. Traffic light targets are in three banks near the top of the playfield. Also, your saucer to the top right will spot you spotlights, and you want to get them all the way to red light. It starts out with green light, orange light, then red light. Rewind the video. Thank you for watching. And then also your current freeway value. So each time you hit the freeway, it's worth more points. Kickback. You have a kickback down the left out lane. Once you use that up, you can hit all six targets down below to relight. That's high speed.
