My friend Lee and I played this for hours loaded from cassette! We coined the phrase "fast ice" which refered to getting the racing line on the corner before a long ice section of track. If you fouled up on a corner, accelerating on the ice was painfully slow but get it perfect and you had "fast ice" I can still hear our delight at the other skidding off on a cunningly positioned oil slick just before a sharp bend.

This was absolutely my most favourite C64 game. I played hours and hours of it...wonder if that is why I ended up loving Gran Turismo so much?

Thank you very very very much for posting this video! This was my favorite game back in '86! I remember playing this game with my best friend on friday's afternoons when we were kids waiting for the evening so my parents could take us out to eat pizza. PIZZA + VIDEO GAMING ON A FRIDAY made me the happiest kid ever! :)

Oh man, Racing Destruction Set! I played the heck out of it as kid & teen in the 80s and 90s! So relaxing to go through the menues and set up a ton of features and stuff, and I spend a lot of time constructing own race tracks, then play them together with my friends. C64 forever!

CCS64 emulator is good too, & even has online/netplay support to play with/against other people. I would really like to play either or both of these games with you. There are also 100+ other assorted emulators, for practically every/any retro PC & consoles ever made. Atari, Nintendo, Sega, etc. I have 50+ emulators & well over 70,000 ROMS/games. If you wan to play, let me know.

@ogrejd Both games are excellent & also classics! C64 is (still) 1 of my all time favorite systems. To bad you're probably not into emulators. Many of them have free online/netplay vai Kaillera. I would love to play you in either game, & many more. I love playing/collecting & have virtually every 8-16bit PC & Console (emulators) from Atari to ZX Spectrum. (100+ emulators & 70,000+ ROMs/games). Hey, If you're interested in play sometime (though I assume your probably not) let me know?

This was always one of my favorite games on my C64. I made a couple dozen of my own tracks for it, and spend a lot of time on them to make them good. Some tracks worked best with the Can Am, some worked best with the street bike, and one or two worked best with the Jeep. I always hated using any kind of lunar gravity because everything slowed down so much and there was so little control. For the weapons, the land mines are always fun!
