Power Drive Rally

The player participates in a season of rallying on multiple tracks spread across eight locations around the world: England , Finland , Italy , Arizona , France , Sweden , Kenya and Corsica . The player starts with $28,000 and chooses one of two vehicles: a Fiat Cinquecento or a Mini Cooper S . Each track has different weather conditions that affect the handling and response of the vehicle during the race. There are various types of racing events in the season ranging from a single qualifying race, rallycross , special stages , and skill tests. Rallycross events are races against a computer-controlled opponent. Special stage events involves the player racing against the clock. Skill tests require the player to test their driving skills on a series of obstacles and the timer is penalized if any traffic cones are knocked over. During gameplay, the player's co-navigator announces incoming turns and hazards. Damage to any component will impair handling and performance of the vehicle on the track. The player earns money by qualifying or winning to continue the season and repair damage to the car. There are also items to collect placed at predetermined points on the tracks, including money, a stopwatch that freezes time for five seconds, and nitrous to give the player a speed boost. As the game progresses, the player can purchase a higher class vehicle with the money saved, such as a Renault Clio , Vauxhall Astra , Ford Escort RS Cosworth or Toyota Celica GT-Four . There are six vehicles in total, each divided into three groups. Failing to qualify for the next racing event results in paying a re-entry fee to try again and the game is over after running out of funds, though the player can resume their progress via a save function. In addition, the game also has a practice mode with four tracks and a multiplayer mode.
