High Way Race is an arcade car racing videogame released by Taito Corporation in 1983.
Gameplay
You take control of a little car that must avoid the other cars, as they will try to take you out of the road. You must be careful with the slopes too, as they might be dangerous at a high speed. Additionally, the car can jump to avoid the cars and to finish the course, as the finish is after a roadless zone. If you manage to time your jump, press button two to free the parachute and land safely. After you finish the four courses, the game will start again with increased difficulty.
The game is over when the player runs out of fuel, so be careful not to crash, as every time you go off-road you'll lose a bit of fuel.
