LOTUS II RECS MD

Licensed by the classic British car company, this game featured 2 modes of play – one has you racing against 19 computer rivals (with witty names such as Alain Phosphate and Crash-Hard Banger), and the other pits you against the clock.

There are 13 different types of races, ranging from Motorways to night-time to sections punctuated by roadworks, and some are lap-based with others being simple A-B. 2 players could play on a split screen mode.

The game’s crowning glory, however, was the RECS editor, which allowed you to create courses of your own, with theoretically millions possible.
