"Wheel 2000" Questions

That stunt was called "Call Waiting." You can see it in action here:

Wario, I'm sorry to say that I don't know the answers to your questions overall, but on the topic of stunts, I do remember a stunt that involved throwing darts at balloons, and the stunt on the timeline that's labeled as "Watch It" was actually called "Match It" according to germanname, and it was something similar to Race Game from The Price is Right.

Yes, it was called Match It. What you had to do was match the color of the helmets with three space aliens. The colors were revealed to everyone except the player. Now although there were three aliens, there were four differently colored helmets to spice up the difficulty. I never saw anyone get 2 letters or 1 letter on this game (just 3 or 0), but my guess is whatever you had right when time ran out, that's how many letters you earned.

Here are some other ones I know.

Alientoss: There are 12 numbered squares on a board, and you have to throw plush aliens at the numbers, which are pretty small, but basically it's like a memory game or Concentration. If you're able to match up to 3 shapes, you get a letter.
This was also the game used when Bravo sponsored Wheel 2000 to go across the country. On the alternative set, there were only 9 squares used instead of 12. When I went to see it at Navy Pier's Grand Ballroom on November 1, 1997, the shapes were halloween themed (2 each of a Trick or Treat Bag, a Pumpkin, a Bat, and a Skeleton). The 9th was the Bravo Card, which gave you a free match. You had only 45 seconds to get three matches.
Since the randomizer didn't come along, they had the contestant choose whatever letters they wanted, the number depending on how many matches they made. Consonants were worth 250 points for each occurence. They could also choose vowels if they wanted to. They didn't cost anything, but in return, they weren't worth anything either. Plus whenever someone landed on that wedge after the game was played, Sidoni announced that it was just a regular 250-point space.

One of my personal favorite games was Chutes and Letters. You guessed a color a on a 12 wedge wheel (4 each had red, yellow, and blue). Right after or as you guess the color, you roll a ball down a chute. If you guess correctly, you get a letter. If not, you can still try again, but you have only 60 seconds to guess correctly up to three times.

Wash and Wear Words. You have hats, shirts, pants, and shoes, each with a letter, and you have to put each of them on to make a four-letter word. If you guess the word you spell correctly, you get a letter. Hopefully they didn't set the game up to have a player spell out, you know...

I don't think there was a slot car game, but there was an R/C car game. I can't remember the name of it, but you have you drive an R/C car along a course that resembled a maze. There are five lines. The first is the starting line, the second gives you the first letter, the third gives you a Wheel 2000 hat, the fourth gives you a second letter, and the third is the finish line, thus giving you the third letter.

Any more I can remember, I'll put them in here.

I appreciate the info about Monster Rally.

Now I know it's been a while since the last post, but after checking the Wiki, I saw that there's unknown info about Cube Roll. I may have an episode where that game is played, but I have to look first. Even if I can't find it, I still know some aspects of the main game, though they may be somewhat sketchy.

It's kind of like the bonus round of "The Big Showdown" only instead of using their hands to roll the dice, they use their hands to push up a lever to tilt a platform to send the cubes rolling down. There are different symbols on the cubes (I don't know if the number is 3 or 6), but if you simply roll a match, you get a letter.

Please keep checking back for more info.
