The background story (from the box) of the game is set in the first half of XXI century when a new type of car race are arranged. The competitors drive an armored and armed cars and the main rule of the race is that the winner takes all.

"Szalenczy Wyscig" ("The Mad Race") simulates car race taking into account different road surface (ice, cinder, tarmac), car equipment (including different types of tires, armor, weapon, engines). The track is build with modular board and it is possible to make 8 different tracks. The players decide what is track surface - it can vary along the way - and they can place in some additional obstacles like ditches or oil splodges.

Game mechanics is based on secret planning the car movement for a game round. The players are using the special "car sheets" and reveal their movement simultaneously. They can not only plan the movement but also they can use weapons. If the cars are on the same field depending on their speed and planned movement type they can hit each other or avoid collision.

After the race the players get their prices depending on their place. With money prices they can repair and upgrade cars buying additional equipment. The winner is chosen after several races.
