Little by little the 32x roster is being completed. Now we just need Motorcross Championship.

I always knew this game was frustratingly mediocre but wow I did not know it was so cheap too. And yes, the DOS version is exactly the same — three second loops reused endlessly.

I hear clicking on the loop point of Intro/Title Screen, but otherwise the pack is fine.

Yup, the raw file of this seems intended to do the clicking point at the start of the loop. There's nothing much I can do to fix it.

Maybe it was intended for the game?

Oh, I didn't notice this before.

Where does "ppdix" come from? No one seems to have bothered doing a longplay of this game on YouTube so I don't know what the credits actually look like but we don't have that on Sega Retro.
