About
Rally driving viewed from above on a scrolling 40x40 stage. The car rotates smoothly through 256 headings with speed-sensitive steering; dirt road is fast, grass and water slow you down and trees stop you dead. An on-screen arrow always points to the next checkpoint. Two stages - Forest and Lakeside - each with a saved best time.
Objective: Pass every checkpoint in order and complete two laps in the fastest time.
Modes: Forest stage, Lakeside stage
