THIS AIN’T NO TEST DRIVE!
Get behind the wheel in this rugged action-packed car and truck racing game. Choose from three specially modified custom muscle cars or a monster truck and tear down the road as you make your way to the checkered flag. Not content with ordinary racing? Burning Road allows you to ram opponents off the road or into embankments as a viable strategy! Vehicles that sustain damage during a race remain damaged until the race is over. Choose the strategy that best fits your vehicle and driving style and go for it – get the best time for the overall race and you’ll win the championship!
- Each vehicle has its own special characteristics, handling and top speed specifications!
- Direct the camera’s point of view – choose from first person, front seat, and three different distances behind the car.
- Select from three totally unique and separate tracks; Practice and Championship Modes; and three difficulty levels.
- Choose either automatic or manual transmissions.
- Special REPLAY MODE allows you to review the ENTIRE race, not just highlights!
- Race against 7 other vehicles in rain, snow, or at night.
- Multi-player capability: Two players can compete via link-up!

Trivia
- The game’s back copy headline of “This ain’t no Test Drive!” was more than likely taking a friendly stab at the long running Test Drive series. TD focuses more on the simulation style racing where BR is more arcade.
- Plays and looks A LOT like Sega’s long running Daytona USA series.
Secrets
Burning Road’s got a backwards entry into the Cheat database.
Programmers Cheats
- Race Reverse Tracks
Select the Practice Mode and any car and transmission. When the chosen track starts, turn around and hit the gas. Once you pass the checkpoint, you’ll be placed into 1st with the opponent cars needing to catch up to you.You can do this on all three Practice tracks, essentially giving yourself three new races to run.
