Repair kits available along the track can reverse the damage. Cars that incur damage are penalized with slower performance. Players receive extra points for causing damage to other cars and for finishing a race damage-free. The game is also packed with special surprises, including hidden tracks and characters, and bonus points that make it possible to win a race without finishing in the first place. Different viewing and playback options make it possible to experience every grueling twist, turn, and obstacle in your path from varied camera angles and positions, with independent controls for each window in multiplayer modes. In micro mode, available for one to four players, all player’s cars can be seen in an aerial view of whatever track is in play.
In split-screen mode, four players can be viewed in different windows simultaneously for a behind-the-car perspective. This game takes place in a kooky cartoon world with 3-D environments ranging from Mount Rushmore to Transylvania.
