A promotional giveaway was accessible on the original arcade version, where players could send in their name and "personalised secret code" after completing rally 50 and receive a free "RoadBlasters" T-shirt. The promotion ended August 31, 1987.

Description

The objective of the game is to complete all 50 rallies without running out of fuel. There is no limit to how many vehicles a player can receive to complete a rally, as long as they have fuel. However, the destruction of the vehicle will subtract a small amount from the player's fuel tank.

How to Play

Each rally features a midway point, denoted by a line on the road which the vehicle crosses. At this point, the amount of fuel in the main tank is restored to what it was at the beginning of the rally. The amount of fuel in the reserve tank, however, is not restored.

When a player gets low on fuel in their main tank, a fuel light will blink on and an alarm will sound on the display. Using up the main tank can mean the vehicle then uses what reserve fuel is stored.
