removal of the heath explination

There was a redundant () remark about what health power-ups do. This comment has been pizzownsourd because it was redundant. Just like this comment. Redundant.

difference between snes and genesis games.

i remember a friend saying that the games were not identical from the snes to the sega genesis versions, that there were some gameplay differences like how to advance to the next planet or something of the sort. I'll try to remember asking him that. maybe I'll download both emulator roms and try to find out specifically what he was talking about. VdSV9•♫ 13:58, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

You're right. In fact, this game was often cited as a rarity in that the Genesis version was "better" than the SNES version (at the time, pretty much every game on both systems results in the SNES version being better). In particular, the SNES version had less voice clips and was missing the Radar Love song. Unfortunately, I can't remember the other differences (there may have been gameplay differences). --71.171.38.145 01:59, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

I've played both and they play the same. Music however is much, much better on SNES with samples that sound like real intruments -- it's easily one of the most amazing soundtracks on SNES ever. Music on Genesis played as its regular synth bore, ver far away from legends like Yuzo Koshiro doing marvels with the hardware. 201.86.170.143 (talk) 18:32, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Why does the article say "developed by Silicon & Synapse (now known as Blizzard Entertainment)" when the title sequence (on the Megadrive version at least) clearly contains the Blizzard logo? 82.71.7.193 21:09, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

On the SNES it was by Sylicon & Synapse for sure -- I even wondered where such amazing company went before knowing it became Blizzard. Perhaps it only came to Genesis later, with the new brand already? 201.86.170.143 (talk) 18:32, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

I was the primary developer on this project until near the end. The company was called silicon & synapse at the time and was a stand alone company that did most of it's work for interplay.

The main differences except music between SMD and SNES: SMD ver. has twice more tracks (new tracks in divisons "A") SMD ver. have more wide screen (320x224) vs (256x224) on race. (menus are same) some sounds was cutted from smd ver. ("light them up" , "spin out" and more) smd cutted number of car angles and as result reduced angles of shoot directions. some sprite was cutted from SMD(hardware requirments) and changed hud gui and no snow on 5th planet. Physics of turning is different. and smd ver. weapon (bullets,missiles) flight always at ground. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.87.88.55 (talk) 22:22, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Lapping Bonus

What is the amount of money gained from a lapping bonus? Also, does one have to be in front of a lapped car for a certain time period, or could a player pass momentarily to gain the bonus?

I believe the bonus to be $5,000 for lapping, and that you must remain in front of the lapped car for 5 seconds, but I would like a difinitive answer. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.179.40.212 (talk) 09:53, 12 March 2007 (UTC).

Lapping is inmediate and not lost if distance is lost. Dragonlord kfb 20:16, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

GBA Port

There should be a small section in this article about the GBA port, and differences between the original versions and this port. Kouban 01:06, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Sequel?

I read that there was a sequel for the PSX but I don't see it mentioned in this article. Was it even made by Blizzard?--Claude 22:43, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

While it wasn't a real sequel, the game you are talking about is called "Red Asphalt" if anything it was a spiritual successor. -Random Rock and Roll Racing Fan.

The wiki previously claimed the sequel was rare when it is not. It might be hard to find the PAL version which had the name Rock & Roll Racing 2: Red Asphalt, but the US release that was simply called Red Asphalt is not hard to find at all. You can even bring up some screenshots on GameFaqs. --MobileSuitGX (talk) 21:18, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Olaf and "Phantom" real stats.

If you look code in ROM, Olaf actually has '+1' to all four stats. and "Phantom" has +16 top speed. (actual for SMD version (I dont look at SNES) )

And this char isn't hidden and even isn't char, because game uses data massives and graphic/sounds for only 7 player Id's., but by passwords you can enter game with eight ID, and glitch as result. Same thing for glitched by passwords 3 cars and 2 planet and 4-th diff.level.

eight char "Phantom" stats (adress+7) $10/0/0/0 ($734A is 0003 word value)

Missing song?

I'm almost sure that there was also Communication_Breakdown from Led Zeppeling. At least on the Sega Genesis version. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Droig (talk • contribs) 00:36, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
