Hi Christian
Authenticity is not my strong point when it comes to cars/racers I have to
admit. So, the lever on the front was more of an artistic “add-on” that
grew from an idea that a starting handle might be necessary.

Regarding rules for the races. I’ll give it some thought. There could be a
whole range of modifiers like stamina/endurance, tactics and prestige for
example, all with different determiners. Experience points will essentially
build up the individual driver and cars potential etc and have an effect on
speed. Again, I’ll give it some thought before I end up writing a D&D
racers guide. :)

Try tracking down a copy of Car Wars by Steve Jackson Games. Although it has a
futuristic setting, it has a detailed system for car movement (acceleration,
braking, manoeuvring, obstacles, hazards, collisions) and combat (which you may
- or may not - want to leave out). It may be useful to base a racers game on...
