I'd been intending to revisit this a while despite not really being into the genre. Like so many Arcade-To-Dreamcast ports, this too is another fantastic looking game that still looks good on modern high resolution displays.

Like a lot of racing games, the game offers a lot of customization options in the sense you can paint your car and change your tires,or choose from a handful of variants with different stats for those that wish to get into the game. The game allows for a gear shifting mechanic to try and pump a little more speed out, however for the most part it seems speed isn't the issue, its' completing turns and avoiding walls.

The AI has a tendency to catch up to you and try as I might, I could never get better than 5th, and on the harder tracks 9th.

Like a lot of sega (and other arcade titles) the sound is digitized voices and has a nice rock and roll type audio soundtrack.
