Description: There are actually TWO versions of this game, unidentifiable in any way except after starting to play or trusting the instruction book you have: in one version, you steer as if the car was a remote control (i.e. turning left always turns the car to IT’S left), whereas the other steers relational to the screen (i.e. turning left always turns the car towards the left of the screen). This latter version of Auto Racing’s cart has the original style Phillips-head screws on the back and a color label.
Easter eggs: On the first track from the starting line, drive on the "lower curb" on the grass just below the road. Go straight to the right and don't turn. You'll drive all over the game’s “world”.
