this game is really really weird, it's basically just the psx version of ridge racer but with new music and a new track/map thingy.
it has the same bullshit as the original which is
kinda sad

also the AI in this game fucking sucks. they'll either have the worst rubber banding and will huddle up in groups as an effort to block you, or have cars like the white angel and 13th racing kid where they will literally outpace you unless you block them yourself
but I do like how the game recognizes blocking as an actual mechanic, with the announcer shouting "get ready to block!" at the right times

and that's another thing I love about this game. the announcer is so fucking wacky
if you let a car overtake you he'll literally say "haha! you're too slow" and some other wacky quotes like "taking your time, aren't you? what's wrong, engine trouble?" it's really funny and i wish more games had cool announcers like these

either way it's basically just a ridge racer ROM hack. not bad but they could have added a lot more content
