Rad Racer

Step into the driver’s seat with Rad Racer, an arcade-style 3-D racing classic that delivers pulse-pounding action from start to finish. Blaze through eight distinct stages, each featuring increasingly challenging roads, shifting weather conditions, and a pack of rival drivers eager to block your path. With responsive controls and arcade-perfect gameplay, you’ll stay on the edge of your seat as you weave through traffic, avoid hazards, and fight for first place on every neon-lit course.
