The races in this game will meet everybody's taste!
This is a single player game. You are a racer and your goal is to achieve the fastest time in all the races! There are 4 different races in the game that you may choose.
Single race
In "Single race" you'll compete with five others. Upon starting the race, you may choose the track you want to race on from the "Select Track" screen.
Time Attack
"Time Attack" is a kind of race in which you have a limited time to complete the lap of the selected track. You race on the track alone. Upon starting the race, you pass one training lap and after this, the "time attack" race begins. If you fail to complete the lap in allotted time, the race ends. If you complete the lap in the limited amount of time, you'll go one more lap and the time to complete the lap lessens, and so on. The race continues until you fail to pass the lap in time. Your record time in "Time Attack" race will be the fastest lap time that you achieved.
Tournament
The tournament consists of Tournament races 1 and 2. Each of the races has 5 different tracks. You can't choose the tracks here. To pass each track in either Tournament is more difficult then one before it.
First you'll race in Tournament 1. Here, you'll compete with 5 other racers. The race is organized by the exclusion method: at the end of the race on each track, the last place finisher must leave the tournament. So, at the end of the 5th race, only 1 player will remain. This player is the winner.
If you are the winner, you may take part in Tournament 2: race on 5 new tracks with the same conditions. If you win Tournament 2, you'll get 2 bonus tracks and may choose whether to race them in "Single race" or "Time Attack" mode.
Remember: as soon as you finish last on the track in any race in Tournament mode, you will be disqualified.
Upon starting each race, be ready when you see "Ready:" There will then be a countdown from 3 to 1, and as "Go!" flashes on the screen, you may control your car.
At the end of each race, the players see the results.
