Nothing on inlay_b.
You have to use the colour codes on the back of the inlay once the program is loaded.
I have made a second TAP file, [starter_cracked.tap], which has the protection removed: always enter "0" (the colour table is located at the end of the TAP file if you hex-edit it).

Les animation graphique est super fluide, bien loin des autres jeux de courses sur Oric. Le seul probleme est la difficulte pour controler la voiture avec le clavier. Si vous y parvennez vous serez le roi de la route. (Sur un Oric Atmos french, c’est mission impossible faute au clavier) |

The graphics are really smooth and the game is far better than any other racing games on Oric. The only problem is the difficulty to master the keyboard controls… if you succeed in this you will be the king of the road. |

Not long ago watched someone playing this in a YouTube vid. I think I was a bit generous with my scoring. Graphically okay and at first boot-up it looks like you're in for a good racing game. Alas, it really isn't. Some people preferred the only other racer game (as far as I recall), Formula 1, but that was really ugly. Okay to look at - not huge fun to play sums this up. |

I played this game a lot in the eighties. I found the scroll effect to be very good at this time for the oric. I remember to place my stam pencil to hold down the 'funct' key so you could keep up the speed in the curves to gain at better time lap. Also you had to use a speciel code to enter the game was something new for the Oric at that time. Good game, bring back a lot of memories... |

Hi Georges.
Is there a way to get in touch with you for an interview ?
BTW, the cracked version can be removed if you wish. |

Wonderful to see scrolling on the Oric.
Only problem I had was remembering to slow down before a curve - that's just me though! |

I found it really hard to play and could not qualify for a race, but the graphics are really good and the road is well drawn. |

The 3D road effect is quite good, but I think that the handling is not very nice. |
