Gameplay

You could upgrade your car and tune it for every track.
There are adjustable settings like oil temperature, turbo boost, fuel and water levels, and the rev counter.
There are also powerslides like in Mario Kart.

Being a rally game there are endurance races aplenty.
There was also car damage, which enough of would necessitate a pit stop. The tracks could be spiced up with weather conditions.

There was also to be a track creator.
You could share your creations and try other's tracks via the online portion of the N64DD.
