About the game
From the box: Long before today's ultra-modern speedways and sleek, technologically advanced racing machines, yesterday's legendary drivers hurled themselves around dirt tracks strapped inside the very same cars that everyone else drove on the street. They were outlaws, yet they were the pioneers of American auto racing. This beautiful game lets you experience the full throttle excitement of America's fastest sport. Roll the dice or play a card to move your cast metal race car around the track as you manage valuable resources like fuel, suspension and tires. A metal dashboard with magnetized markers helps you keep track of your car and your opponents. Bumping and crashes are part of the sport but damage to your chassis might force you into the pits at the wrong time. A clean fast race to victory and you will receive the Raceway 57 trophy.
