A strange little side quest
Zoom out from Cop That! for a moment and the timeline gets surprisingly deep. Formula 1 introduced pit-lane speed limits during the 1994 season as safety concerns grew around increasingly fast cars and busier pit lanes. The timeline takes another interesting turn: Atari's Gran Trak 10 from 1974 is recognized as the first arcade racing video game. So a round of Cop That! is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer racing timeline.
