A strange little side quest
The fun part of looking behind Flying Cars is seeing how many older ideas are still alive in modern play. Formula 1 introduced pit-lane speed limits during the 1994 season as safety concerns grew around increasingly fast cars and busier pit lanes. A second detail makes the picture even better: Street Fighter II, released in 1991, turned head-to-head arcade fighting into a worldwide phenomenon and helped define the modern fighting-game genre. That gives Flying Cars a little more company than it first appears to have.
