Love racing games and Rock n' Roll Racing is a great racer... Love the soundtracks and different tracks along with the upgrading of vehicles and weapons used. I started off in the Veteran League but finished up the video in the Rookie League. I also only recorded a couple or three tracks from each level since it a long season to record the whole thing.. If you play the Veteran or higher levels there are different tracks. I was hoping for all the tracks in the Rookie League but when I got to the end and finished first it was the end and I would of had to restart in the higher leagues to see all the tracks.. Great Game!

A little about the game:

Rock n' Roll Racing is a vehicular combat-based racing video game developed by Silicon & Synapse (now known as Blizzard Entertainment) and published by Interplay Productions for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993 and the Mega Drive/Genesis in 1994. The game prominently features a number of popular heavy metal and rock songs in its soundtrack, hence the game's title. The game was ported to the Game Boy Advance in 2003. In celebration of the company's 30th anniversary, Rock n' Roll Racing was re-released for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as part of the Blizzard Arcade Collection in February 2021.

The game pits four racers against each other, with up to two of them being player-controlled from a colourful collection of comic-book-inspired humans and aliens, and the rest being AI opponents; "Rip" and "Shred", who appear in all races, plus a third character unique to each planet/level in one-player mode. Each race consists of four laps around tracks viewed from an isometric perspective, which enables players to discern the presence of frequent sloping sections spread throughout the game's various tracks. In addition to navigating the turns, racers must also maneuver hills and dips without falling or jumping over the guard rail at the track's edge.
