Zero Magazine (1990) - "You choose one (of four) high powered sports cars: an Allegro, a Beetle, a Lada or a Reliant Robin. (A Porsche, a Ferrari, a Chewy or a Lamborghini actually. Ed.). Like Lombard RAC Rally, you see the gears being changed, but the in-car graphics are nicer. Unlike Lombard RAC Rally, there's only one road scenario - a side of a cliff hairpin jobbie, but the feeling of speed and control you get is much better.
There are police cars peppered about, which will pull in front of you and give you a speeding ticket - if you let them catch you up, that is - and there are several stages to get through (the roads getting more and more torturous as you progress). The rewards for doing well appear as little scrolling messages when you reach a checkpoint: "You were driving like a whirlwind back there, my friend" might sound a trifle corny as a line of dialogue in a movie, but after outrunning two police cars and not crashing once, it somehow loses its naffness. The collision detection is a bit iffy, but with a game that's this much fun I don't care."
