Tested on NTSC region PS2 (model: SCPH-30001 R) with modded SATA official PS2 network adapter.

Cartoon Network Racing
NTSC (SLUS_214.38)
Mode 2, Config E1 (see Issue below)
Needs Mode 2 to resolve laggy movement and timing of music.

Issue: Black screen (strange OPL issue).

Solution to black screen: Go to your main FreeMcBoot menu, select Free HDBoot Configurator, select Configure E1 launch keys, select Circle button, select your OPL 1.0 ELF file (OPL app), go to Return, and select Save CNF to MC1 (Memory Card slot 1), Mass (if using USB), or hdd0 (internal hard drive). MAKE SURE YOU SAVE. Reboot console after saving. When FreeMcBoot logo appears, hold Circle button to automatically launch OPL. Once OPL library appears, scroll to Cartoon Network Racing and press Cross/X to run game. Make sure Mode 2 is set in Game Settings before running game. You will have to automatically boot to OPL every time you want to run this game.
