Another realistic part is the ability for you to sell your car and haggle. This game is a true classic. You start out as a petty street racer who wants to be the king of the road. With a small amount of money you buy a car actually more a piece of junk and start racing. As soon as you start winning some races you will get more money and cars. Keep racing till you have the best car possible and then challenge the King in order to become the number one street racer! There are more then enough racing games around.
The thing that makes this racing game different is the fact you can totally change your car as you wish. Change the engine, carburator, roof, wheels etc. You can even toss a fancy sticker on the side of your car.
When racing other racers you can either race for cash, or pink slips. When racing for pink slips you can win the opponents car or loose yours, so watch out who you are challenging! The fact this game doesn't get perfect score is the miss of different race tracks. It's either a drag race or a circuit which won't change btw. The game compensates with the fun of pimping your ride. The s - the century of good music and beautiful cars.
And it's up to you to acquire one of those beauties, tune it up and become the king of the road. You start of with only a few bucks - just enough to get a cheap car.
Now get out on the street and win some races. You can bet your money or your car. I played the Amiga version, and I must say, it looks great but the controls are all over the place.
The PC version controls are a times better, but it doesn't have the music nor the graphics of the Amiga version. Cooper 0 point. When I was a child, me and my friend beat the king several times with the '63 Covette.
Then my friend challenge me "Who can beat the king with the worst car" I did it with the Tbird, he did it with Pontiac silver streak, and then with other car, I think Dodge polara. We play this game whole summer.
Later I was beat the game one time in PC. I tried to play with Amiga version but not started in emulator :. Killbilly82 0 point. The ultimate best old game for petrolheads that had never had modern equivalent, which is a horribly sad thing. It has the feeling of the "american graffiti" movie, which is it mainly based on. The cars are beautiful, the fact you can upgrade and tune them even more. The sequel was great with more cars and upgrade possibilities, BUT almost unplayable, there was no way to win that game normally.
Sad that the project Street rod 3 of the early s went nowhere. But seriously, you want money for this? I downloaded it as free abandonware 20 years ago already, this is so vintage and mega-old, you cannot be serious. I really dont understand todays PC world. Booger -1 point. JC9 0 point. This game came with a computer my father purchased at an auction. Very entertaining.
Rob 1 point DOS version. The first screen is a code asking for the color of a key on page whatever. What use is this if I can't play it? I am using a Tandy TX. Gaudete Games -2 points. Street Rod SE, an updated version which includes all of the vehicles from the Car Data Disk, was also released as freeware in Street Rod was released in and takes place in the year Using money you earn through races, you can modify your car and winning enough races earns you the right to challenge The King for his position.
The player starts off on the garage, where cars and parts may be purchased from the newspaper. New parts that are purchased must be installed by the player by entering the hood of or going under the car and then removing a series of screws to remove parts of the engine and transmission.
Then, these parts must be re-installed in order and the bolts replaced, otherwise the car will be undrivable. To install tires, the car must be jacked up. While racing, the car will eventually run out of fuel, which the player must obtain from the gas station. The player will proceed from the garage to the local diner in order to find some competition to race.
Races take place on either a dragstrip drag race option or an open country road. Wagers on the drag races can be set from 'Just for kicks! When the race starts, the player must wait for a signal to be given to go or else they forfeit the race.
If the player's car doesn't have an automatic transmission, they can either 'drop their transmission' during the race if they keep accelerator pressed while shifting gears, or blow the engine if the tachometer dial is in the red zone for too much. In either case, the player would lose the bet they made and would be transported back to the garage, where they have to get new parts for their car.
If the player crashes their car during the race, they can get the car fixed for a fee, or have it scrapped and receive the scrap value. However, if they get involved in a serious crash or the car has already been repaired several times before, they are only able to receive the car's scrap value.
During the road race the player would occasionally also get chased by police. Either instance results in the race being forfeited. If the player can't afford to pay the fine, they will be sent to prison. If the player doesn't have a car and their amount of money is not enough to buy the cheapest car, the game is over.
