Top Gear 2 is the sequel to SNES racing game Top Gear and was released for the Super Nintendo, the Sega Genesis, and Amiga computers. One of the main differences from its predecessor is its aim for a more realistic simulation. The game keeps track on what parts of the car are damaged and how it will affect the car, a fuel gauge is added, and the handling is harder and less arcade-like. Other differences include an upgrade system where you can spend money earned from winning races and racetrack pickups that can either give you extra money or nitro boosts.
In this run, Technickle ( https://tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/Technickle ) improves on the previous run by almost four minutes. This is achieved through the usage of new tricks and glitches, including an out-of-bounds collision glitch that can let you instantly win the race.
