I'm quite fond of the original arcade game and its various ports.  The spectrum port is well done and fun in its own right, but I cant help but feel it could have been better with some background music like every other version and maybe some colour on the vehicles even if its just a single pixel right in the middle of them.

There are a few game breaking bugs in this game.  I am not sure if the game has an ending or if it is endless. Towards the end of this run the game would crash on the win screen unless I got rid of most of my cash so I could proceed onto the next race.  After than I needed to get rid of all my continues and cash to make any more progress until finally, it just throws up an unwinnable race.

I have also recorded the Lynx, Genesis and Snes versions of the game to compare against. I believe we also have the nes version. -
