Really cool concept and I enjoyed playing! I wish there were other game modes, this one would be the classic mode.
I like the idea of powerups, or an opportunity to regain health or something to also affect where you choose to drive or potentially vanquish some of the ghost cars. Diff race tracks would be awesome if you develop it any further.
The music is cool but repetitive after a while, the aesthetic is nice and overall the story reminded me of the movie "Christine" from 1983 about the haunted car. Leaning into that 80s vibe might add a bit of nostaligia and additional charm to an already charming game.
I only played for about 20 mins and got to 19 laps does anything happen at 50 laps like a cutscene. If not a payoff after a game like this is always nice.
Thanks for making it :)
