It's fun for a while and has a lot of ups and downs. The graphics are impressive for 87. Would have rather had music than car hums since the game has to choose. You can drift past someone into first which is incredibly cool, but if you crash from an oil slick you reset in a random direction, not to mention they can sometimes sprite flicker meaning you can't see them. You have access to cool items, but the AI can achieve Ludicrous Speed.
Now I know what you're asking: If the AI can Ludicrous Speed and get out of the range of your items, doesn't that make your items practically useless once they are out of sight? Well, YES!
Extra shoutouts to Track 24 where not only are there no items on the track (beyond the NINTENDO letter which if you get all upgrades your car) but if you started in 3rd with the bomb weapon, is literally impossible.
