I love this game... I played it a lot... It was an adventure trying to improve the car, test engines and parts... I had a lot of fun... Please, GOG, bring this classic back, with its manual and list of features codes to start the game... Pure nostalgia...
I still play this game on my Commodore 64. Start with the Ford Fairlane and do some drag races with $50,- bet. Buy a new Ford V8 engine.351 , Ford transmission 4 spd , 1 or 2 4-BRL carb, a Ford 4-BRL mainfold and some tires. Now hit the streets to do some road races. Eventually King will appear...Win the drag race and the road race and you have completed the game.
My Summer car, with street racing at dead man's curve to go from a jalopy to a 63 Corvette Stingray. Race for money, or Pink Slips, get your GTA garage of classic 40's - 60's hotrods, muscle cars, with T-birds and Vettes thrown in.

Ta gra to najlepsza gra jaka wyszła kiedykolwiek,mnóstwo czasu spędzone w klimacie amerykańskich krążowników,wyścigi o kasę potem o bryki ,świetna ulepszanie aut , niestety nie ma teraz możliwości zagrania w tą grę a fajnie żeby obie te części zostały dodane na stałe na platformie GOG.
My dad got me into video gaming. I remember he and my brother had gone to a computer store and this game was demoed there. They thought it was the coolest things ever. My dad bought it right there and when they got home they were telling me all about it. We spent hours playing it and trying to win each race. We never could beat the guy with the 350 GT (I think that's what the main Street Rod guy drove), but man does this game bring back a lot of memories. I lost my dad in 2013, I miss him every day. Most of my friends are parents now and when I suggest that they should play games with their kids, like my dad did with me, they look at me like I'm crazy. My brother doesn't really game at all anymore, I mostly play games by myself now, but I'd love to be able to come back and play this one every now and then. Love ya dad.
Friend of mine had a C64 and we would play this on most days. Lots of trial and error as we could not read English and we had no idea how cars work (being 5-7-ish at the time). It is quite simple as an adult, but a fantastic game still. If there ever was a game that deserves a modern remake it is this one. I wish GOG would not only bring this to us, but also remade it. IIRC this was made in Poland. What better company than GOG to breathe fresh life into it.

Need for Speed: Underground 2
Need for Speed: Underground 2Need For Speed Underground 2 takes place in Bayview after the events of Need for Speed: Underground. The prologue begins with the player driving in a Nissan Skyline R34 in Olympic City (though the racing scenes are actually in Bayview), the setting of NFS:UG. He then receives a race challenge from a rather ominous personality who offers him a spot on his crew, but "won't take 'no' for an answer." The player races off — despite Samantha's warnings — only to be ambushed by a mysterious driver in a rage that totals his Skyline. The driver, who has a unique scythe tattoo, makes a call confirming the accident, and the flashback fades out.
