Race Drivin' is a 1992 driving simulation that puts players behind the wheel of powerful sports cars and challenges them to master a collection of demanding tracks. The game emphasizes realistic handling, including acceleration, braking, steering, and the occasional spectacular loss of control. Unlike straightforward arcade racers, it expects drivers to understand their vehicle rather than simply holding down the accelerator and hoping for the best. The courses feature ramps, sharp turns, hills, and other opportunities to discover just how badly a car can behave when driven carelessly. Race Drivin' captures the fascination of early 3D racing technology, even when the visuals look decidedly primitive by modern standards. It is a game for anyone who enjoys the idea of driving fast cars while simultaneously learning why driving fast cars requires considerably more skill than expected.
Computer and Video Games (1992): "The graphics aren't too bad, but I've seen better vector routines, and sound is very basic apart from the brilliant guitar riff on the intro screen. An ambitious game which is well presented and well designed but ultimately disappointing."
