From the makers of Micro Machines comes TOCA Touring Car Championship -- Codemasters first attempt at a simulation racer. TOCA Touring Car Championship is a devastatingly real simulation of the inarguable Auto Trader/RAC British Touring Car Championship Series. A full license ensures that all the real drivers, teams, cars, courses, and advertising from the 1997 season have been digitized and stored on a single CD-ROM.

TOCA Touring Car Championship features 12 real courses that will test even the most fanatical Touring Fan to spot the differences thanks to the ultra-complicated 3D-mapping techniques that Codemasters have put in place. Each of the 16 Touring Cars have also been precisely laser sketched to ensure that every detail, curve, and texture is perfect for the game.

Commentary is provided by Tiff Needell who delivers both during and after race descriptions for the purpose of informing on the race conditions and situation. Also witness spectacular crashes, degrading car conditions leading to visual damage, tight control, a number of views including the exhilarating head cam, actual vehicle damage and a two-player option intended for multiplayer fanatics to tear it up in split-screen fashion.

Get ready to take on another season of high-speed technical racing with 3DO and Codemaster's TOCA Championship Racing. Armchair drivers will be manning the four-door Super Tourer in a family vehicle-like frame. Emulating actual FIA Super Touring rules, the individual cars feature four-wheel drive and a two-liter engine with anywhere between 2000cc and 8500 revs. Eight car manufacturers have lent their actual designs to the production of this title including Ford's Mondeo, Nissan's Primera, and Audi's A4.

TOCA Championship Racing features a variety of gameplay options including Single Races, Championship Races, and the Time Trial. Played with either one or two-players (via horizontal split-screen), the Single Race is simply extra practice to get familiar with track layouts or sharing the road with your opponents. Time Trial allows the speed freaks to compete with their own fastest laps and track times.

The Championship mode consists of an entire 24-race season at nine different track locations. In order to advance to the next round, players are required to meet certain point quota. For example, rounds one and two at Donington Park Grand Prix require at least 20 points for progression; fail to reach this number and you'll be left behind in the dust! After every six races, cups are awarded based on your season performance. If you're good enough, you'll then be able to unlock secret cheat codes for the game!

Among the nine tracks represented are the realistically designed Silverstone International, Oulton Park Fosters, Snetterton, and Brands Hatch Indy. Each track is laid out turn-by-turn in conjunction with its real-life counterpart. Additionally, TOCA Championship Racing features weather effects (sunny, cloudy, stormy, foggy), different camera views, and specialty controller support including the neGcon, MadCatz Wheel, and the Dual Shock Analog Controller.

Features:
* Race in finely-tuned automobiles including Ford, Audi, and Nissan
* Compete against a friend via split-screen
* Accurate physics and realistic damage
