Power Drift

Serious burn up action is guaranteed in this blast, folks. Set over 27 excruciatingly painful circuits, your job is to get to the front and make sure you stay there til the bitter end.

Take your pick from twelve outrageous auto-jockeys, like Jason the Skinhead, and get your revs up for the start of the first outing. Timing is all-important in this bash, otherwise you'll find yourself high and dry on a mud bank and at the back of the pack.

Each track is surprisingly different and there are plenty of obstacles for you to overcome before you take on the final night race and hit the chequered flag. Take the corners carefully at first, but keep a close watch on the flags to announce their approach. Once you've mastered the controls, you'll be able to throw your buggy around at full tilt, gaining valuable seconds on the opposition.

Totally playable and great fun to boot, this is another surefire budget success that'll have you sweating from the second you hit the accelerator. Great graphics, realistic sound effects and a guaranteed nightmare... get it!
