TRIVIA

Released in November 2019.

This was the first arcade racer to use a 4K monitor, but not the first arcade game to do so (that was achieved by an indie arcade game called Cosmotrons earlier in 2019).

It also used WeChat integration and cloud profiles, but no card system like Maximum Tune uses.

Distributed in the United States by Wahlap and Amusement Source International.
