Formula One: Built To Win

Dale Earnhardt Jr. Says: Formula One don't mean shit right now.  
Dale Earnhardt Says: Watch your mouth, son.
The Bent Kangaroo Says: He'll be docked points and fined, but he's right in this case.

What Kind Of Game Is This?

One of the first racing games that includes multi-stage races, car upgrades based on money won in previous races, and perhaps the only that allows you to gamble those winnings in Vegas.

But Knowing You, You Hate It

Hate is a strong word.

Well?

The game plays like Pole Position and Rad Racer, in that you drive towards the back of the screen, which is fine. But, for some reason, there are a multitude of other cars that are not involved in the race that you must pass.  Additionally, many of the cars get a huge head start, and have rear-view mirrors that your car is not equipped with. Fortunately, if you get a good nitro boost and you're going fast enough, you go right through some cars.

You Didn't Mention Play Control

Oh, that's fine.

So Who Would You Recommend This To?

If you like these kinds of games, you'll probably like this one. I found it to be difficult for the wrong reasons and extremely repetitious. It is Formula One in name only, as this hardly resembles the professional racing circuit of the same name.
