I've just got back from a holiday in Spain and I've played a game there
that some people may be interested in. It was called DAYTONA USA and was a
NASCAR game made using an extension of the Virtua Racing/Fighter engine.
There are 3 tracks on it Daytona, a road circuit and a street circuit. You
can rub, bump and run into the back of cars and you can get damage repaired
in the pits. Quite cool really, not too difficult but the steering's hard
to get used to.
Oh yes.. it's an arcade game if anyone was wondering if they could get it
and it's by SEGA. You sit in a car body thingy and can use manual or
automatic gears.

excellent. Especially the unusual fact that you could put the back out
and steer through the corners with the throttle - I've never been able to
do that with feel in an arcade game before. Me and my girlfriend (who's
a mite competitive ! ) had some reallly good races on the head to head
version. I wan wun.
