A really impressive title for the PS1 with its physics and destructible environments, but not necessarily a very good one. The mechanic of being able to drive on walls and ceilings while really cool to see is barely utilized with only like 2 noteworthy examples I can think of, the jump between Easy and Hard difficulty is a bit much and throwing a Normal in the middle would have been appreciated, and it's ridiculously easy to spin out and get turned around with the slightest impact or brake, which along with all the items flying around everywhere I'm sure makes this a great chaotic multiplayer experience but just makes Hard races really frustrating. Additionally, I saw pretty much everything there was to offer singleplayer-wise in under an hour, with there only being 10 tracks all of which are very short. While I can absolutely see the value in this game, I can't really recommend it to anyone who didn't grow up with it as anything more than a quick novelty.
