Nitro Racers Overview
Nitro Racers is a DOS-era racing game featuring thirty distinct tracks with varied surfaces like ice, mud, and asphalt. A core element involves aggressive driving, where players can force opponents into collisions with the environment to cause damage.
Earnings from races are used in a shop to purchase upgrades for car parts such as tires, engines, and brakes, and to hire a faster pit crew. Vehicle maintenance and cosmetic changes can also be performed during pit stops within a race. The tracks include ramps, bridges, and tunnels that can be used strategically.
Players have the option of a close-up camera view for a more detailed perspective. The game originally included network multiplayer functionality, though this is noted as unsupported in the described release due to its age.
