Great look back, Chris! I totally love the first three games. I just got Championship last year and it was incredible to play. I went to a retro game shop asking about RC PA 2 and I was shocked at how much it was going for, but now I understand. Sounds like we need a new installment, but I really want them to retain the sprite style and track perspective. Thanks for an awesome vid.

When I was a kid initially playing this I had no idea RC stood for "Remote Control" so I never really considered them to be miniature cars (I lived in metro L.A. were not alot of kids had money enough to own RC cars so I never really saw anyone playing with these) lol I actually thought they were life size cars,...it wasn't until way later that I realized what they actually were, after knowing that I always invizioned a sequel that would actually take place in real city streets (much like the ending of your video)to show the actual size of the cars as well as home made ramps and obstacles kids would actually set up in game, it would actually be nice if a reboot of sorts took this approach with some kind of track builder..ah we could only hope.., thanks again for another great piece.👍

If anyone's looking for some RC racing games, check out ReVolt. One of the most fun racing games on the Dreamcast (and it's on other consoles as well). It doesn't have the same feel as RC Pro Am, but it is an RC car racer with weapon add-ons. It has the added benefit of taking place in "realistic" RC settings though! Had a ton of fun with it back in the day.

If you read this, I'm curious how you think Galaxy 5000 stacks up to them? I personally think it's better but I find myself playing all of them when I have time so what does better even mean to me. Rock n Roll Racing is great too but Galaxy 5000 is the best of all of them to me. Or not. It's hard to say.

I think I got to level 96 or so, but when I was a kid I got up to 170 something I think, which was like 6 play throughs of every level, lost on level 22, which was by far the hardest track
