Richard Petty's Talladega (later reissued simply as Talladega)[3] is an arcade-style racing computer game featuring Richard Petty and Talladega Superspeedway that was released in 1985 to the North American and European markets.

Gameplay

This driver is going the maximum speed possible without a turbo boost.

The player races against "The King" and eighteen other professional drivers. The player must maintain his automobile through strategic pit stops after qualifying.[4] Vehicles in the game have the capability of going 250 miles per hour (402.3 kilometres per hour) without turbo boost and 294 miles per hour (473.2 kilometres per hour) with a turbo boost.[5]

Players that do not qualify are not entitled to race in that particular race. However, they can receive the results of that race, and are given a chance to qualify for the next race. The race automatically ends when the player crash the vehicle, runs out of gasoline, blows a tire or completes the race.[6]
