"The modern day version of STREET ROD. This is everything and more that I wished Street Rod would evolve into. The only thing missing is access to enter the main st. PUB and brag 'bout how ya WANJA V8 is gonna stomp them flamin' bloody import PANANIA's on the GUTTA oval."

DESCRIPTION
Revhead is a unique car racing simulation game like no other, where you have to build your very own race car. In the game, you have a friend called Charlie, who is a race car fanatic. He has a passion for building his own unique racing vehicles, and he has invited you to Australia as he needs help from you. You start your journey in a small town in Australia, where the only way to get recognised in the community is if you are able to build the best and fastest race car around. All you have is Charlie, his expertise, and his garage. The rest is up to you!
You have to think like a real Revhead! Although you can buy and sell different cars and its various components, as well as fix and tweak your car to achieve optimal performance, a good race is not always about which is the strongest or fastest. A true Revhead understands that a good race car has to be one that matches its driver’s skills as well as the racing conditions on the day of the event.
Revhead is all about building and racing with your dream car, and while all of your racing skills will be required to beat others on the track, you also have to master the mechanical skills needed to be able to fix, maintain or re-build your car. A true race car, just as in real life, is built up from thousands of components with each part needing to seamlessly connect with each other in order to work perfectly. Each component can be removed, replaced or swapped between other cars. This way, you can not only customise your paint work and looks, but also the handling and performance of the car.
Understand your car!
Watch your car when you are driving, see how it is handling, how smoky is it or what
is that noise coming from under the hood. All these can help you to identify the real
problem.
You need a 4x4, but you don’t have the budget? Buy a wreck cheap car and
transform it in to a 4x4 supercharged racing beast, using wrecked cars and used
components from the newspaper.
Your engine is strong, but your car doesn’t reach the speed you need? Make sure
your gears and differential match with your goals!
Racing and what is behind it
In the reality, racing is about 80% mechanical work, 19% testing and 1% racing. In
this game, we try to get closer to this, while we still wanted to keep the fun. If you like
cars, if you do understand that a car is not only about 4 wheels, 1 motor and a
steering wheel, if you don’t afraid of mistakes, if you dare to challenge others, even
when you are with your most loved car, then Welcome in Noordu, the land of
Revheads!
STORY
In the middle of the summer holiday, you get a postcard from Uncle Charlie. He just
moved to a small village Noordu, somewhere in Australia. Charlie was one of the
most famous racers around Australia, he earned the Revhead title more times than
anyone else. Later, he worked for the best race garages as the best mechanic and
instructor. Today, Charlie opened his garage, and his own racetrack nicked as the
“Backyard”. He knows you love cars, and he could use some help to get the
business up and running. He invites you to Australia to check his new place and help
him out. You can help Charlie with fixing cars in his garage or help to promote his
new track and get your racing carrier started. You don’t have much money, so you
need to be creative if you want to stay longer.
While Charlie can help you with some work in his garage, you can find cars and
parts in local newspapers, use Charlie’s garage to fix or modify your cars. Soon, you
find yourself between local racers, challenge them and win their money or rides. You
realize that you can make not only good money, but you can be a part of something
special.
Something, that does not exist anywhere else!
You learn more and more about cars and enjoy the world of the Revheads! Be the
best and earn the title of Revhead!
