Seta's first stab at an automotive career-management concept, this 1990 US title blends racing with mechanical progression, making it more original than standard NES racers. Modest distribution by a Japanese third party with limited American presence keeps boxed copies less common. The interest rests on that simulation-and-management blend, unusual for the machine, more than on a high price.
