Lethal Crash Race / Bakuretsu Crash Race (set 1)

Lethal Crash Race is a three-player driving game released in 1993 by Video System Co. Players compete against each other in high-speed races utilizing an eight-way joystick to navigate and maneuver their vehicles. The objective appears to be overtaking opponents while navigating the track, with opportunities for strategic collisions—the “crash” element of the title suggests a degree of aggressive gameplay encouraged. Originally known as Bakuretsu Crash Race in Japan (meaning "Exploding Crash Race"), this arcade game features a vibrant visual style and sound design driven by Yamaha YM2610 audio hardware. The controls are straightforward, employing an eight-way joystick for movement and three buttons to interact with the game’s functions—likely accelerating, braking or performing special actions. Licensed for distribution in the United States and Canada through Mc O'River, Lethal Crash Race provides a competitive racing experience for up to three players simultaneously.
