1977 1-2 Players 57% Not Rated

Race against a competitor or the computer. Wait until the start tree shows green, hit the accelerator, and get to fourth gear as soon as you can to get the checkered flag. Do not shift too fast, though, or you will blow the engine. This game uses working analog tachometers so you would know when to shift. Revving too high will cause the engine to blow. If you shift too soon, your speed will stay low because your engine won't be going fast enough to handle the gear. Activision based their 1980 Atari 2600 game Dragster on this game.
