Description from the packaging.

Real bikes. Real roads. Real competition.

At 150 Mph., the blacktop blurs in front of you. With the whine of your racing bike drilling through your helmet, you crest a hill. 50 feet ahead, an oil slick. Go straight, you go down. Swerve left, you meet the front grill of a diesel truck. Bail right, you eat guardrail. One wrong move and you'll see, this is as real as it gets.

In this game, you're right in the meat of high-speed, high danger motorcycle road racing. The intense action of full-motion video pushes you to the limits of sanity as you scream down the blacktop against riders with the same need for speed.

Through 5 live-action roadways, you'll blast down the straightaways at 160 Mph. plus, drag your knees around hairpins, negotiate chicanes in traffic. Every road stripe, every background, every bike-eating guardrail, digitized to make you feel what it's like to win or eat asphalt in real motorcycle racing.

Technologically speaking, this CD-ROM brings you to the cutting edge. Biologically speaking, it gives you the adrenaline rush of riding a real race-tuned motorcycle. And just like the real thing, the roads are real hard when hit them.

Features:

  • Over 400 megabytes of real video footage and 6 race ready bikes including Kidney-crunching 1,000cc to turbo'd 900s give you the sensation of real high-speed racing.
  • Beat aggressive competitors and avoid obstacles including Sunday drivers and slow-moving semi trucks.
  • Original soundtrack and realistic sound effects.
  • 3 skill levels and 3 competitor aggression levels.

Win races, earn points and money to upgrade your bike, plug in more powerful engines, high performance tires, or one of dozens of other upgrades to turn your pocket rocket into an even meaner machine.

Race in full screen or chart your progress over the course in the combination overhead race/map screen.

Race practice laps, or go for the championship in a realistic, behind-the-rider perspective on 5 courses from winding mountain passes to flat desert screamers to tree-lined backroads.
