How to unlock the Halo Reach mini race

Believe it or not in Halo Reach it is possible to take part in a real mini race with the Warthogs by competing with a friend of yours. Here's what to do to unlock it.

Play the "Oni: Basic Sword" mission with two players in a co-op game on Normal difficulty or higher. There are two hidden switches which are marked as "doors" that you can open (although there isn't actually a door nearby). To find the exact location of the two switches please refer to the video at the bottom of the news. The message "Press and hold B to open door" will appear when you are in the correct position. Note: Reload your weapon before trying to find it. Once you find the first switch, one of the players must stop there and wait for the other to find the second switch. When the second player has also found the switch, they must be activated by pressing B simultaneously.

The message of "Current Objective: Reach Racer" will appear. You will be transported to the Oni: Sword Base with two Gauss Cannon Warthogs. It will now be possible to start a race marked with red checkpoints. The losing Warthog will explode at the end of the race.

Note: we tried to explain it as clearly as possible, but, as they say in these cases, a picture is worth a thousand words (let alone a movie!). So here's a super handy video that shows you how to get this awesome Easter Egg.
