Arcade and Nintendo 64 differences

  • In the arcade version, many voice clips were present in certain stages, explaining about them. In the Nintendo 64 version, they were removed for unknown reasons.

  • In the arcade version, the animals explode into bloody chunks when the player hits them, while on the N64 version, the player passes right through them or they run across the road early enough so the player does not hit them. This was probably done to avoid the game getting a Teen rating.

  • The Nintendo 64 version gives the player the ability to race in a tournament mode, save data back to the ROM cartridge, and give the car custom boosts ("Power Levels") and paint jobs. The Nintendo 64 version also features split-screen multiplayer.

  • The Nintendo 64 version is Rumble Pack-compatible, while the steering wheel provides resistance on the arcade version when the player collides with something.

  • In the arcade version, at the start of the race, a woman appears on the screen and waves the checkered flag and says "READY...SET...GO!!" and then goes offscreen. In the Nintendo 64 version, there's an option in the Options menu that toggles this feature.

    Tubular bells are musical instruments in the percussion family. Each bell is a metal tube, 30–38 mm in diameter, tuned by altering its length.
