ABOUT THE GAME
In the year 2000, Infogrames brought the beloved Hanna-Barbera cartoon to the world of video games. Wacky Races is a kart-style racing game featuring all eleven vehicles from the original 1968 television series, each with its own handling characteristics and special abilities.
Players collect floating Wacky Tokens during races to charge up their vehicle's gadgets — categorised as Attack, Defense, or Speed abilities. The game features four modes: Championship, Time Trial, Multiplayer, and Super Gadgets.
Due to the eight-car grid limit, not all eleven cars can race at once. Dick Dastardly, Red Max, and Professor Pat Pending serve as unlockable boss vehicles in the PlayStation and PC versions.
Original cartoon voices Janet Waldo (Penelope Pitstop) and John Stephenson (Lazy Luke) reprised their roles in the Dreamcast edition.
