I'd love to see the look on a kid's face today if he unwrapped this at Christmas instead of a PS3.

My brother had this game as a child. I remember my pot smoking dad playing with it so much that we never had the chance....

@fopmd MADE IN SINGAPORE? thats where i am! oh man how come i cant find this anywhere!!
When was this made? I take it the whole thing is mechanical, it sounds like it is. What happens when you crash into another car? Does the unit keep track of your place in the race?

Made in 1978! Of course it's mechanical. That's what it makes so damn sophisticated. Keep track of what?? HAHAHAHA! No, it doesn't keep track of anything, just of the laps (i.e. the time) you are in w/o doin'a crash.
Yeah, time to pay.

Your kung-fu is weak! You shift like an old lady! I used to roll the counter on that badboy, possibly the first "videogame" I ever pwnd! ;)
Really though, thanks for posting this so I don't have to haul out my precious aging Digital Derby every time I want to explain it to someone.

Whatever! This is a slo-mo for all you lame-o-watchers! Otherwise you couldn't even see what's goin'on. ;-)

Isn't it fantastic? The sound is produced mechanically!
