Top Speed (2011)

This is not a driving school, ladies and gentlemen.

We know you can all change gears, accelerate, brake, turn, pass... But that is not all there is to it. This is racing. And you're the elite of the elite.

And racing is about taking risks. About knowing when and how much to risk.

TOP SPEED is a fast and furious racing game for 2 or more players in nestorgames' Format 3, where the components must be purchased separately. It uses a simple Push-your-luck mechanic to move the cars.

MATERIAL

Common:

- One TOP SPEED board depicting the Montmeló circuit (SPAIN) and a Laps Remaining track (tens and units).
- 2 lap markers (tens and units).
- One gray ‘Safety Car’ marker.
