description
The aim of the game is to earn as much money as possible by winning races. Pitstop offers a total of six different race tracks: Monaco , Kyalami (South Africa), Le Mans (France), Albi (France), Jarama (Spain) and Saint-Jovite (Canada). The other vehicles that show up during the race and need to be overtaken are pure dummies.
The driving performance of the players' vehicles is completely identical. Groundbreaking features were on the one hand fuel consumption and tire wear. The more often the car collides with another car, the more the four tires are stressed individually. The tires can be changed in the pit with a crew member. Refueling must also take place in the box. Pay attention to the fuel gauge, because overfilling the tank leads to an empty tank, and you start over with filling the tank.
