u used to be able to post a code u got from time trials to their website and they would list the top 3 for each track. this was the latest archived link i could find for PC & PS (click "Hall of Fame" then the dropdown box) https://web.archive.org/web/20001118232800/http://www.codemasters.com/index2.htm pretty cool how they did this 20+ years ago

It was an interesting system at the time, unfortunately the boards for many games were filled with very obvious cheats.

I thought about putting them here but there is absolutely 0 proof of the records unfortunately. This game has a weird mechanic with levelling up vehicles and if these times were so low then the 1st place runner must have had a very high level car. There is also the mode where you get to choose the vehicle, so could have been that.

I don't know why I just decided to search for this hall-of-fame after 20 years. My friends and I had a few of these records. We had Micro Machine nights. There are few I can vouch for if that means anything.

I'm pretty sure the game didn't let you use any car upgrades, or alternate vehicles for the records. Their are a few clearly bogus entries. I assume some folks broke the code submission encryption or found a map glitch.

Can anyone get the beach page to load? That is where my personal best was. Man, I spent hours trying to get that one. Thank you for the wayback link Quar!
