Just know that patience is key and that you won't want to challenge your younger siblings and still expect a good race. If you're cool with that, then you should have a blast. Even with 4 players, the game runs smoothly, and thanks to the combat system, includes tons of opportunities for hi-jinks. If you're looking for a good multi-player racer on the Dreamcast, this is it. And while I'm on it, let me touch on the way of the wee wheeled warrior.
Weapons are well animated and the way they affect gameplay is priceless.
My one knock is that with all the offensive weapons, there really isn't a shield of any kind, which is kind of a pain when you have a few cars on your tail looking for any way to get ahead. Lastly, a fun side-note about the game's track editor. Just a hunch, but it seems that these guys have no clue when they encounter a non-scripted track. The ones I made caused them to turn around and basically run in place. At least you can design something cool for multi-player, but it's a shame this game was pushed out the door before this got settled up.
