CONTROLS
The aim of the game is to reach the end of all five tracks intact, within a time limit, and beat as many other drivers as you can to the champagne ceremony at the end...
You can use either a joystick or the keyboard to control your Twin Turbo V8.
Q - Accelerate
A - Brake
0 - Steer Leff
P - Steer Right
SPACE - Change Gear
If you need to pause the game, press H. Press it again to restart.
Press O to quit a game.
To enter your name in the hi-score table, use Steer left and Steer right to choose a letter, and your Change gear control to enter it.
HINTS AND TIPS
* Always move off from a standstill in LOW GEAR.
* Change down a gear on sharp bends to use engine braking.
* Try to find the optimum speed for the most efficient gearchange while accelerating.
* You get an extra car for every stage that you complete, You start the game with three cars.
* Your car will spin if you drift off the road - if you're quick, you may be able to catch it. If you don't, then you'll lose that car and carry on in a new one.
* Don't try to go full whack all the, way - just like real performance car driving, you won't last very long!
* A bar at the bottom of the screen shows your progress along each of the tracks- watch this and the countdown timer to see how well you're doing.
So, strap yourself into the drivers seat, fire up the Twin Turbo V8 and tear up some tarmac!!!
