Race Days is a 1994 racing video game for the Game Boy, which is essentially a compilation of the video games Dirty Racing (Japan-exclusive) and Jeep Jamboree: Off Road Adventure (North America-exclusive); albeit with a different name for the Jeep Jamboree game.[1]

Summary

This game allows the player to compete in a race with either Grand Prix style cars (similar to Micro Machines) or with off-road vehicles.[2]

Obstacles must be avoided and opponents must be overtaken in the Grand Prix game titled Dirty Racing while hills, bumps, and sharp curves must be navigated in the off-road event titled Dirty Racing.[2] Players in the Dirty Racing mode are informed of any sharp turns by making them look on top of their windshield.[2] This game can be used with the GameLink cable to provide two-player fun and entertainment.[2] Each variation has a map with plenty of statistics. Players must qualify before each race and start out with local meets before working up to the big championship. The maps are generic and do not show any nation in particular. Players can also practice before each race in order to tune up their skils.
