Description
In the future, races are held across America where the drivers race for money, and their lives. You are the rookie. Welcome to Deathtrack.
Starting off the game with a meager sum, you can choose from three cars (either speedy, plenty of firepower or heavily-armored) and begin practicing for your races against the other drivers.
Your opponents have all been captured in 16-colour digital photo splendour. Featuring 3D polygonal cars racing against each other, they try their best to remove you from the race, permanently.
Your winnings can be used to upgrade your car's armor, weapons and parts to make you car impervious to harm, a juggernaut of firepower, hurtling down the 10 available tracks.

Trivia
There is an action scene which is extremely similar to this game in "After the fall of New York", an italian B movie released in the U.S. in 1983. It features old clunkers that compete to death with arms like those you can equip your car with in the game. Who knows if this movie gave Dynamix the idea of doing Deathtrack or if it's just a coincidence?
