It's fun, though dated. All vehicles handle differently. It's not the worst game out there if you can look past the graphics and "edgy" presentation.

I really loved that game as a kid. I really like the maps on Mars where you had hover vehicles :D

I used to play this a lot. It had peculiar but fun physics and the vehicles all handled very differently from each other, all in all a really cool arcade racing game.

We would play this game in IT class in school. We'd take turns with one person doing the class work and sending it to everyone else over MSN Messenger while everyone else played games lol

That's amazing. Did the teacher not notice?

I remember him as being fairly clueless. Looking back now, it must have been difficult for him. It was the 90s and the idea of a technology class was brand new. This guy was probably a math teacher who suddenly had to pivot to this new requirement from the education board. I think at least half the class knew more about computers than he did. He was probably just happy we didn't cause a fuss.

Is this the same developer that did The Big Red Adventure?
