Secret Token

In the original Crash Team Racing, there are 20 obtainable tokens. They come in five colors: red, green, blue, yellow and purple. Four tokens for each color. However, if you use the Wrong Warp to alter the memory value, you could also find another token. This token can be obtained in Slide Coliseum, but not when playing Adventure Mode.

## Wrong Warping

To setup this Wrong Warp, you must first enter a save file that has a Crystal Bonus Round unlocked. This is to prevent the game from crashing when entering a warp pad the second time. If you're still unsure what would work for a save file, open up a 100%-101% save file instead. Next, go back to the Main Menu and select Battle Mode. Select the arena Lab Basement and enter the following information.

Type: Life Limit Mode / Length: 3 Minutes, 3 Lives / Teams: P1 in Red Team, P2 in Yellow Team

You don't need a specific weapon, but the most effective way to complete a match is to only enable Tracking Missiles. Once you enter the arena, win one match as P1. After that, go to Change Setup. Then once again select Start Battle. Doing this will warp you to Gemstone Valley. Head to a purple warp pad that is accessible on your previous save file, and start a bonus round. When you're loaded into the arena, don't complete the challenge. Press START. You will be introduced to the paused screen that normally displays when you're in Battle Mode. Go to Change Setup. When you enter the Setup Battle screen, keep backing out until you're once again at the Main Menu. Next, go to Arcade Mode. Choose Single as your Race Type, and 1P as the number of players racing. There should only be one player, or else the game will softlock. After doing all of that, you can finally head to Slide Coliseum.

## Slide Coliseum's Token

Once the race begins, you will notice several changes. The timer shows 3:00.00 as it's time limit, and a crystal counter of 00/0. The only weapon in the race are Bowling Bombs, and there are also no competing racers in the match. This all goes back to Wrong Warping. The game is setup as if you're still in a crystal bonus round. It wasn't assigned a time limit, number of crystals, or specific weapons. Instead, it displays default information as a placeholder. What is really interesting is that Wumpa Fruit counts as crystals, and they will add to the counter. If you collect a Wumpa Fruit, the race ends as a Crystal Bonus Round. When doing so, the game will award you a red token.

## General Information

* Attempting this trick on Adventure Mode with tracks that support CTR Challenges will not award you their real token. This is because the game is setup as a Crystal Bonus Round, not a CTR Challenge. The level will try to award you a Crystal Bonus Round token with the track's warp pad color, but it doesn't get counted. Though you can't obtain a CTR Token in Slide Coliseum through a CTR Challenge, it is still interesting that there is a token inside the level at all.
* This trick doesn't work on Turbo Track, as it was never assigned a token.
* This glitch won't work in Relic Races since there are no Wumpa Fruit in this mode. Completing the race or waiting for the time to run out also causes the game to softlock, because it can't display both endings from Relic Races and Crystal Bonus Rounds. Therefore, collecting this secret token is impossible in Adventure Mode.

"It's interesting that it has a red token assigned, maybe it was intended to be a normal race for trophies too at some point? Who knows."
