Simply put this is a poor man's Continental Circus, in fact it tries to be Continental Circus and doesn't get anywhere near it. The controls are quite dismal and the other cars are just quite happy to bash into you thus ruining your chances of qualifying to the next stage...which I have never done by the way which says something...yes I may be crap but this game's rubbish...so there!

Ahem, I was a little disappointed with Continental Circus on the Spectrum but I will take it a thousand times over this. Some Pac-Man clones are better than Pac-Man itself, most Tetris clones are better than Tetris itself, but this Continental Circus clone isn't even close to its original and is better off left in the pits in permanent retirement.

It's just a really poor Continental Circus clone and a vastly overpriced one at that. It's fast at full speed but it's very difficult to avoid the other cars who seem to just want to hit you any chance they get. Also it's very confusing to have a position AND a rank, and then pass cars that don't effect the rank whatsoever, what exactly is the purpose for this game? When you had Miami Cobra GT and Chevy Chase released the same year for £2.99 each while this was sold for £10.99 originally, this didn't stand a chance.
