Hey guys,

Today I remembered a game from back in my primary school days(~2000 but played on win98). Noooo idea of the name, nor do my mates. It was graphically terrible racing game, which supported split screen and you could race jeeps, airboats and helicopters. It was simple, looked bad, but god did we have fun of a friday afternoon if we got our work done early.

Anyone know it? IIRC it was freeware/shareware.

Thanks,
ED E.

Kind of similar, but no. It was 3rd person btw, not top down like some of the Micro Machines games.

Another thing is the courses were kind of kept in by hills rather than a fixed barricaded track.
