The car begins to move along the track, and is soon flanked by other cars running at their individual speeds along the roadway. Using your GT accelerator and steering wheel, the car should be prevented from touching those alongside it; A red light shows on the instrument panel to allow 5 seconds for preparation and familiarisation.

A bell rings and the race begins with the panel light changing to green, your aim is now to outrun the other cars, using your accelerator and steering wheel in an exciting and stimulating experience of true racing skill.
