Trivia

Version 1.0 of this game was humorously buggy to say the least. You could watch other cars drive in mid-air and burrow into the ground. Also, the game was not clock-timed, so it was impossible to play on anything faster than a 486.

Listed as one of the of the cars inside the game files is a "Toyota Tercel EZ". Is it possible you can drive one of those blue econoboxes? Hmm.
