	Wacky Races Playstation Game Review in ABSOLUTE PLAYSTATION INTERNATIONAL - Wacky Races
		Whether they were simply trying to 'Stop that Pigeon' or deviously cheat their way to first place in Wacky Races, you couldn't help but snigger along with Muttley at Dick's Dastardly outrageous tricks.
		Wacky Races sticks rigidly to the format of the TV cartoon where players are actually encouraged to win the race using any means necessary.
		Before a race even begins the player is subjected to a nauseous experience as the rapid moving camera quickly pans full circle before settling slightly behind the starting line.

	Welcome to the GameVortex
		There are plenty of vehicles out there to race, quite a few not appearing until you unlock them, and they all have their own visual bent.
		Wacky Races certainly isn't a revolution in the racer genre -- it's basically a repackaged Crash Team Racing with a different way of doing weapons and much better graphics -- but it never fails to entertain.
		But the game, as stated previously, tends to slow down whenever there's a lot of action on the screen, and since you'll be firing weapons and everything in the pack, you'll oftentimes be better off closing your eyes, waiting for the mayhem to end, and seeing where you end up.

	Wacky Races Review and Pictures
		A group of misfits would race across the American states in order to win the 'wacky race' however the evil villain of the piece - Dick Dastardly would set traps for the others so he would win.
		Wacky Races has been developed with great care, it is obvious that the developers were also fans of the cartoon.
		Each area has 5 race sections to complete, however to access the Cup challenges and the Battle areas you have to perform well gaining stars and by fulfilling the different race criteria.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Wacky Races
		Wacky Races, which was pure funny stuff from the word "go", debuted on CBS on September 14, 1968.
		And it wasn't the first cartoon to rip off that premise — Jay Ward's Tom Slick, one of the back segments on George of the Jungle's show, beat this one onto the small screen by a year.
		Wacky Races underwent the usual merchandising route, including a comic book from Gold Key that ran seven issues (August, 1969 through April, 1972).

	Wacky Races review for the DREAMCAST
		The bulk of the races in the game take place on looped tracks that require lapping, which unfortunately takes away some of the feel from the show.
		After the race is said and done, players can relive their hijinks in an excellent replay mode.
		Wacky Races is, without a doubt, the best kart racer that I've seen in a long while.

		Wacky Races, your average racing-come-kart-based game for the Dreamcast, is a cross between South Park Rally and Mario 64.
		Wacky Races is a cross between South Park Rally and Mario 64, and stars classic Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters.
		It adds a lot of strategy to the racing because the game is basically boiled down to a kart type racer in that you have to use your weapons/skills instead of pure driving skill.

		The International Wacky Racing Championship, abbreviated to Wacky Races or the IWR Championships, is the highest class of single-seat open-wheel formula auto racing.
		In Great Britain the races are broadcast on the Cartoon Network and drivers usually expect to earn up to $3.5 billion dollars in advertising a year.
		A spin off from the Wacky Races was Deathrace 2000, founded by Rufus Ruffcut and Sawtooth (who drove The Buzz Wagon in WR) when they realised they weren't getting enough chances to cut peope up with their saw tooth wheels.

		If your job is to create a mascot-based racing game, you'd best follow in the footsteps of the masters.
		The top four places of each race are awarded points for finishing and the rest of the pack gets to feel good about finishing.
		Wacky Races has proven to me that all licensed games are not forced by nature to be worse than their source material.

		Indeed, even thirty-three years after its inception, the Wacky Races cartoon it is still one of the worst pieces of tripe to ever be foisted upon the children of the planet Earth.
		The race courses are all uniquely themed, always making it easy to not only remember which course you are on, but to learn the layout and find the myriad of shortcuts.
		With Wacky Races, however, I was left trying to unlock the next course, or trying to figure out the secret of unlocking Dick Dastardly & Muttley.

		The most daredevil group of daffy drivers to ever whirl their wheels in the Wacky Races, competing for the title of “The World’s Wackiest Racer!” The cars are approaching the starting line.
		Together with Muttley, he is briefed on the race beforehand while the equipment for the so-called traps he lays is supplied and left at the appropriate place for him to set up when he gets there.
		I'm sure there was a follow up Wacky Races done but they removed the entire cast apart from Dick Dasterly and put in some of their well known characters like Yoga Bear and Huckleberry Hound.

		This show never jumped because basically it never deviated from the format which is to say that it was the same thing every week but so what it was a cartoon and it was entertaining which is about all we expect from cartoons anyway so who's complaining.
		There are two occasions when I consider it came close to jumping: one - when Dastardly actually came so close to winning that the nose of his car (which was, of course, split in half by a circular saw) was actually touching the line ages before the rest came through.
		Wacky Races was too cool, never jumped, it was great fun and well produced cartoon for kids in the late 60's.

		The cool thing about Wacky Races is the outcome of the game could change at any moment, so if you blow up and your in first place you could end up down in fifth place, and then you can catch up with the other races by using the power-ups.
		With most GB race games all you do is hold down the A button and avoid the odd car and then finish the track.
		Wacky Races adds a lot of ideas, the power ups idea hasn’t been used in a racer like this that I have seen.

	DVD Verdict Review - Wacky Races: The Complete Series
		To be sure, cheating seemed to have been allowed by the rules of this Cannonball Run–like race—all the drivers had some sort of gadgets or gizmos to give them an edge—but Dick Dastardly took it to a whole other level.
		He would actually sacrifice his lead in the race to stop and attempt to pull off some hare-brained plot that was inevitably doomed to backfire on him and leave him in last place.
		Wacky Races was successful enough to inspire three spin-offs (as well as toys, comic books, and even video games), and the other included featurette, "Spinout Spinoffs," explores two of them.

		Of all the cartoon series to hit the Saturday Morning lineup in the late 60's/early 70's was the Wacky Races.
		Anyway, the Wacky Races is a brilliant cartoon show with lap after lap of action and fun for kids of all ages.

		Driving on Russia’s roads has never been much fun but devotees of “off-road” racing have found that the Russian countryside is the perfect terrain for their sport.
		In order to survive unbearable conditions during the race, all cars are totally modified and look more like tanks than just common vehicles.
		Often getting stuck in swamps and deep mud, the 2.5-ton vehicles need to be winched out by navigators who wade into water up to their necks.

		And with characters that most cart racing fans will be unfamiliar with, there's not much of a reason to buy this game unless you're looking for a hard cart racer.

		Wacky treasure hunts and screwball car-chase movies were staples of '70s cinema, but there have been few examples of such movies recently.
