official art · Selchow & Righter

Roll-and-move auto racing game. Inner lanes are shorter than the outer lanes, hence the name of the game. Sequence of movement determined for each "Spurt" (turn) by a "Lane-Locator". This is a clear plastic item that looks like a 4 inch long banjo case. Six colored beads, corresponding to the six colors of cars, are shaken in the pancake area of the "Lane-Locator" and then rolled into the neck; thereby specifying the order of movement for that turn. Betting is encouraged.
