Overview[]
Game modes include a Trial mode to play just one track or Championship mode to race all 3 tracks. The tracks include America which is loosely based on San Francisco, an Asia track, and a Europe track with snowy mountains. To Differentiate from other racing games of the era, the courses go in a loop of sorts. The player can choose a 5-speed Manual transmission (expert), 4-speed Automatic transmission (beginner) and Automatic transmission 2 which also has auto-brake (student driver). The games BGM can be changed on the fly to the other course's theme with buttons 1-3, button 4 will turn the BGM off.
There are four offroad 4x4 SUVs and pickup trucks (or as the game calls them, RVs) to choose from, three of them are based on real world models of existing cars. The cars include the Mitsubishi Pajero METAL TOP WIDE XR-ll, Land Rover Discovery V8 iES, Toyota Hilux SS-R Wide Body 4DOOR and the fictional Field Fox VG-0048 by the Neo Geo motor factory.
