Another racing game that puts US Gold's OutRun to great shame.

The game impressively shows every aspect of speed, graphics and gameplay, with most racing games you get two out of three, this had all three! Yes after a while boredom will kick in and one go will be enough but its still a great racing game and definately worth your attention.

Excellent racing game. It has been a long time since I enjoyed a racing game on the Spectrum this much. It reminds me a lot of Out Run, not as pretty, but pretty good, and even better, I think. The car moves very smoothly, speed is very realistic and the difficulty level is reasonably so to keep the game addictive. If only the tracks had more variety this would be a full 5 for me.

This is proof that Out Run was a shoddy port. Here you can drive the red car you're supposed to be driving in Out Run, well okay that was a Ferrari and this is a Chevrolet but still it's red and there was no excuse for the Out Run programmers not to have us drive a red Ferrari other than they were too lazy to do so. This has the look, feel and enjoyment Out Run lacks. This does have the same problem most racing games have in that boredom will kick in with the same stuff happening but it's still a most enjoyable racing game and it's much better than the Out Run games by a considerable margin.
