Road Trip - Shifting Gears ROM

Also, be sure to check out Gadget Racers.

Road Trip – Shifting Gears is a video game developed by Electronics Application and published by Conspiracy Entertainment. It was released in North America on April 6, 2004, for Game Boy Advance. Similar to Gadget Racers, your goal is to complete multiple challenges to open to tracks and challenges in order to win the game.

Finish in the top 3 in each challenge and win money to upgrade your car. There are over 100 upgrades available such as new engines, tires, steering wheels, shifters… even new car bodies and paint. The game consists of 150 challenges on 60 different tracks.

These come in the form of standard racing, drag racing, stopping on time within an area, jumping onto “bullseyes”, running circles around a cone, and more. You’ll never be bored from doing the same thing on the same track. Enjoy tracks that are paved, sand, and snow. Also, enjoy racing in the rain where traction is poor. With the right upgrades to your car, you can handle these dangers.

Without them, you may not finish in the top 3. In order to progress in the challenges, you need to finish in the top 3 in each race. If you finish first, you not only get more money, but you also get a prize. Prizes are free parts for your car. This can save you money and can allow you to get certain upgrades more quickly as not all upgrades are available from the start.
