About

The player races through six racing stages to win the title Grand Champion. The racing car be either a "Farco R4 Cup" or "Andula 2.0" and the color can be customized. Each stage gets progressively difficult with the first two at Beginner level, the next two at Medium level and the last two at Expert level. Each race track requires you to go through a number of laps, while following the arrows to make turns on road bends and curves. A race must be finished in the fastest record time without the countdown running out. Checkpoints give extra time to the countdown. The stages that follow the first will introduce new terrain elements that may hinder the car's speed and traction such as water channels, large humps and slippery ice.
