Summary
You are about to embark on one of the most daring auto racing events of your career! Flying along ramps, zooming under overpasses, and tearing around treacherous curves, you will experience the hair-raising near misses and breathtaking speeds of the Grand Prix in the safety of your own home!
With its state-of-the-art video technology, Sprintmaster lets you experience the real-life dangers of auto racing by exposing you to blacktop, dirt, or ice track surfaces, and unexpected road hazards. Water, for example, will force you to brake and slow down, while wet tar will cause you to careen with dangerous unpredictability. Look out for the "bonus objects" which can give you extra speed or traction when you need it most!
Compete with either a friend or the computer and select from among 9 track configurations for a race length of up to 50 laps.
Can you win the most races in the shortest time and become the next Grand Prix winner?
