You can play on your own as well as in two people and all this thanks to the split screen option (in case of lack of people willing to play, on the second half of the screen there is a detailed map of the route with the marked position of the players). There are four motorcycles to choose from, but they only differ in colour. The repertoire of available tracks, of which there are as many as twelve, is much better presented. You can compete in training mode, single race (including qualifying) and full world championships. In the latter case, all routes are made available in turn and there is no option to select them.
Six motorcyclists take part in each race. The computer can handle the ride very well, so your opponents can be extremely troublesome. Too frivolous an approach to machine control does not make things any easier either. The motorcycle reacts very vigorously to cursor keys, which leads to frequent accidents. Audio-visual setting on a level, although it is difficult to fall in love with it. The whole is reminiscent of a cult Atari invention called Pole Position, with the difference that Formula 1 cars have been replaced by motorcycles.
