About this game

Karting Grand Prix is a top-down racing game with eight circuits and competition from two opponents. One opponent can also be controlled by another human player.

Tracks feature wet, dry, or icy conditions, making tire selection an important part of each race. Contact with other cars wears down the tires and can eventually cause punctures. Lap counts vary according to each circuit's length and complexity.

The game also uses sampled sound effects, providing a realistic audio character for its time. It was released for Atari ST/STE, Commodore Amiga, and Commodore C64/128/MAX.
