* TheBermudaTriangle: The Bermuda Blast track starts as a short track with a sunny tropical island environment.

* ActionGirl: All of the female racers, but the most clear-cut example would be the first game's Juana, whose bio describes her as a bodybuilder. In her ending, Amman Ra tries to steal her trophy, which ends with her giving him a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.
* TheBermudaTriangle: Both games have their own takes on it among their courses. In the first game, it's a straightforward maritime graveyard full of wrecked ships and stormy weather. The Bermuda Blast track in ''Rides Gone Wild'' is a bit more interesting, as it starts out as a short track with a sunny tropical island environment.

* SpaghettiAndGondolas: Both games have tracks where you race through the canals of Venice.

* TuxedoAndMartini: The Venetian Extreme track in ''Rides Gone Wild'' is heavily inspired by Film/JamesBond-esque spy movies, with the plot of one happening in the background of the race as the secret agent Michael Hawke (who can later be unlocked as [[TheAce the best racer in the game]]) fights bad guys and blows up various parts of Venice.
