Probably not the best racing game out there, VR Powerboat Racing is certainly a unique title. How many boat racing sims do you know? :) I played the demo back in 1998 but never managed to get my hands on the full game. It would be great if we could see it here on GOG!

F-1 World Grand Prix II
F-1 World Grand Prix IIF1 WGP 2 pretty much sports the same features as the first game. The game has 4 modes of play: the championship season mode, the exhibition race, time trials, and the challenge mode. R and Z are used to shift gears, the analog stick is used to steer the car, A is the accelerator and B is the brake. The C-buttons allow for camera changes and backmirror views. It's pretty much the same setup and how these work are pretty much unchanged from the first game to the second.
