About this game

Versions of Al Unser Jr.'s Turbo Racing released outside North America were simply titled Turbo Racing with all references to Unser removed, due to the relative obscurity of CART and Unser outside of North America.

Al Unser Jr.'s Turbo Racing is a racing video game for the Nintendo Entertainment System console released in 1990. It is an adaptation of the 1989 Japanese-market Famicom game World Grand Prix - Pole to Finish, with the most notable changes being the addition of Unser as an in-game coach, the number of laps, sound and interface design. This game features a season mode and two time trial modes.

The game has very little in way of a storyline, aside from the addition of Al Unser Jr. as a playable character, or as a couch. The season comprises a fairly typical formula one season. Al Unser Jr. was a prominent American race car driver who has won the Indianapolis 500 twice. Interestingly, he never raced in Formula One.
