Description

Rally Championship is a unique combination of arcade and simulated style racing. The game, involving 6 different rallies, spans 24 hardcore stages over four separate regions of the world. Race in snowy Arctic terrains in Lapland, Finland; zoom along the Grand Canyon banks in the Rally USA; or enjoy an English sunset in either of the three prestigious British Rally Championship tracks of Scotland, Wales or the Manx. And if that's not enough of a challenge try the 6 additional Safari stages set amongst the great African dirt roads and wildlife. Jump in the driving seat and experience the power of your selected licensed rally car. There are four completely separate classes of cars to choose from including Privateer, 1600 modified, 2 litre modified, Class A8, or unlock one of the three secret classic models. Whichever you choose, prepare to feel the adrenaline rush as you challenge your own racing ability and get your driving skills up to speed in 'Quick Race' or 'Arcade' modes before proving yourself as a pro in the 'Career' mode where the bigger your bank balance the bigger the opportunities. Or if you'd prefer to challenge your friends go head to head in the 2-4 'Multiplayer' split screen mode Features: - More cars than any other Rally game, with classics like the Mini Cooper and Audi Quattro lining up alongside all the various competitors from 2001 Rally Championship stages (2.0, 1.6 class) as well as other cars from the 2WD and 2LMP entrants.
