Fell upon this video accidentally. As someone else already said, having the Amiga version originally, I too expected something perhaps even pitiful. I was VERY wrong! This is a great conversion/version. More competent and faithful than I could have ever imagined. I'm impressed. Never owned a Speccy myself, but would have loved this as a kid too...
Wow, I had this on the Amiga but forgot it was out for the Spectrum as well. I was expecting this version to look far more primitive but it doesn't at all. Geoff Crammond is an absolute genius. I used to love this and Grand Prix on the Amiga, and Grand Prix 2 and 4 on the PC (never played 3). He got the physics right where so many failed. It's a shame development of Stunt Car Racer Pro was cancelled.

Despite being reviewed by a complete dullard this game is actually fantastic fun.

Oh the hours I played this, it was even more fun when I had had a few (well I was 19-20 when it came out).

nice to see this - thanks.
Faster processor in the spectrum made this quite a speedy version.

Oh man, you're bringing me back so many memories. I just watched your Football Manager vid and that was great.
Why, oh why did I leave my speccy gear in the loft when I moved house in the eighties? Gutted mate.
Keep up the good work. You have a new subscriber.

Yeah, I know, but it's not the same as mashing those rubber keys.
