Hours of fun riding crazy vehicles in reckless races around open maps. Trucks, 6 wheeled bathtub, helicopter, inflatable boat, and many more. Lots of memories in split-screen with friends sharing one side of the keyboard

This is such a great racing game. Free movement, weird humorous commentary, exploding cars. But yeah, the freedom was awesome. And many classes of vehicles: monster trucks, jeeps, boats, helicopters, mini's, lorries. Awesome!
Came bundled with a PENTIUM 4 computer after purchasing and just had a BLAST! It wasn't that great on the GRAPHICS side but it blew my mind when I was a KID . .!

As a child, I yearned for open track boundaries. Well, that and chaotic multiplayer that tests human bonds. This game delivers both with a big bucket of whimsy. When friends are over, don't make 'em play any old mainstream "kart" racer--give 'em _total_ friendship destruction. Give 'em Big Red Racing.

As a child, I spent hours on the two tracks of the demo, trying to do the most incredible stunts ever. Physics and real 3D where such amazing at this time and it worked so well on my 486 computer. Then I finally bought the full game in its big box, to discover more circuits and vehicle, but also a wonderful soundtrack that was embedded as audio CD tracks.
