Official GAME of the Unites States Auto Club
Recreate the Indy 500....
Who among you hasn't dreamed of driving in an Indy 500? Next to horse racing, more people watch auto racing than any other sport. There are a lot of spectators sharing your dream.
You can make that dream a near reality by playing this game. A game so authentic that it is the only officially sanctioned auto racing game authorized by the United States Auto Club.
Drive an Indy 500 Auto... YOURSELF!
Well, not exactly! But you can do the next best thing. IN the play of this game you actually tale the part of a real life driver who was one of 33 qualifiers at a recent Indianapolis 500. As such, you control his car in an attempt to match or better his actual performance.
Based on statistical accuracy
Each of the 33 real-life qualifying drivers is represented in the game by a Driver Performance Card. Based on actual racing statistics compiled by USAC, each car will perform on the track pretty much as it did in real life... but with one big difference!
BONUS
Statistical performances are revised each year by USAC with updated Driver Performance Cards available, at a nominal cost, directly from The Avalon Hill Game Company.
Collector's Item: All 33 Driver Performance Cards include the full-color photograph of the championship driver, an addition to one's collector item shelf that will be as valuable someday as bubble gun cards of old-time athletes. |
