==Gameplay== [[File:RCProAm2.jpg|frame|''R.C. Pro-Am II'' screenshot]] ''R.C. Pro-Am II'' is a [[racing video game]] in which four vehicles compete on a series of 24 different tracks: eight standard racetracks, eight "cityscape" tracks, and eight offroad tracks. The [[difficulty level]] increases between each type of course. Players must navigate around course obstacles to finish the race. In the [[Single-player video game|single-player mode]], the players races against three [[Artificial intelligence (video games)|artificial intelligence]] opponents. The game also has a [[multiplayer video game|multiplayer mode]] in which up to four human players can race against each other. The objective of each race is to finish in the top three places to receive [[Playoff format#Total points series (aggregate)|race points]] and money, which is used to upgrade vehicles and buy weapons. The top three finishers are qualified to participate in the next race while other players must use a [[continue (video games)|continue]].
