Sega Master System version
This version is played permanently in a split screen, regardless of if one or two players are playing. If only one player is racing then the second player is replaced by a computer opponent called "Wayne." "Wayne" plays like a human player in that his performance varies from race to race, in contrast to most racing games of the era, where the main opponent is programmed to always finish in the same position.
Carry-Over
The same track in this game is used for the future Formula 1 game F1 Exhaust Note, made by SEGA in 1991, respectively.
