- For the first race, a car with 150 HP can win the race without big difficulties. For the remaining races, the Nissan SKYLINE GT-R (R32) (both the 1989 and 1991 model) with a Stage 1 Turbo Kit should have no problem winning the race.
Trivia[]
- Except for the prize car of the fifth race, all the prize cars aren't cars from the 1980s, but from the 1990s. Curiously, these four 1990s prize cars are all produced by Mugen.
