Description from the packaging.

At breakneck speed you steer your race car around the track. But that's only half the challenge, because in the pits it's a race against the clock using your joystick to control the pit crew.

Plan your race strategy carefully, the faster you go the more fuel you will burn and the quicker your tires will wear. Should you stay on the track or head for the pits? The decision is yours. Remember in the pits it's a race against the clock to gas up, change tired and get back on the track.

This isn't just another race game, its like the real thing. Pit Stop, the first race game where the race is won or lost in the pits.
