A strange little side quest
Real City Driving may feel immediate, but the ideas around racing have been evolving for a very long time. Formula 1 introduced pit-lane speed limits during the 1994 season as safety concerns grew around increasingly fast cars and busier pit lanes. It also connects to a different milestone: Pong was field-tested in California bars in 1972 and helped launch the modern arcade-game era. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Real City Driving feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
