Actually the inspiration for the game I thought was kinda cool. The idea
was to make a racing game and a shooting game into one - ie: you stick a
regular controler into controler port 1, and a light gun into controler
port 2. Then you drive with one hand and shoot stuff with the light gun.
It might not work out as well as I would want it to, but hey - why not
give it a try? You never know.

Of course, you would be able to play the game without the light gun,
even though that was the whole inspiration of the game. The game being
of a 'wipeout' style is totaly tentave - no work beyond that of the
initial code framework has commensed.
