Take the most powerful motorcycle engine ever built and place it and the driver inside a 8 meter diameter high tech wheel constructed of a carbon-fiber rubber compound and you get....a Wheel Racer!
Technically the vehicle uses a gyroscope controlled, center of mass shift, to propel and stabilize the vehicle. In addition, it has a shock absorber travel distance of over 2 meters making it almost crash proof on rough terrain.
The driving experience is awesome and the vehicle can reach 100mph and boasts an automatic gear box. The engine sound is simply amazing and will warm the heart of any "petrol-head".
Game Features
You can race against the computer or on-line against other players.
Online games allow up to 64 vehicles at a time, dependant on your hardware. The game engine does a CPU performance test when started and will automatically downgrade the vehicle limit on slower computers.
Off-Road Racing at it's best
Most racing games limit you to specific tracks because the vehicles are not able to handle rough terrains. Not so with WheelRacer, this game lets you ramp over hills, down valleys, do what ever it takes to get to the end first.
Random game obstacles - concrete blocks and jump forward/back flags. These are placed along the race track and are never in the same location from race to race which means the track can't become predictable, you never know what to expect.
Key features in the game include:
Advanced multi player technology via the Torque Game Engine as used in Tribes 2
3 vehicle cameras. One interior and 2 exterior intelligent cameras.
Up to 64 players on a server. (hardware dependant, remainder will be observers )
Observer "action camera's" give observers the feeling of being part of the game
Multi player game options include: Racing and Endurance modes
Huge maps to play on.
Random game obstacles - concrete blocks and jump forward/back flags
