It was your opportunity to belt up and finally see what Nelson Piquet was seeing on his way to his second drivers championship in 1983. Here you had the chance to choose your machine and circuit. A crisp intro screen of dancing colours would morph into a picture of a Grand Prix car laid upon a blinding blue set of menu screens. In typical ZX fashion it would be loaded via a cassette recorder with a sound similar to a mid 1990вЂ™s dial up modem, fancy add on discs were not part of our world at that point.

The very first racing game that I encountered in this new age was Chequered Flag by Psion Software for the Speccy. Chequered Flag loading screen вЂ“ Sinclair Spectrum Machines such as the aforementioned Spectrum spewed forth some addictive offerings that allowed us to become racing drivers of race winning pedigree. Predictably for me this included my first foray into racing games.

It wasnвЂ™t a couple of blocky sprites on screen, it actually WAS the Bismark! Of course over the next few years вЂ“ and with the use of a few home computers of my own and my friends вЂ“ we had access to a myriad of interesting gaming scenarios. All you had to do was adjust the cannon trajectory to ensure you had the right angle to hit the ship. It was a simple game with a cannon and a ship. It was awe inspiring, breathtaking, beautiful, life changing. My first experience with this wonderful new technology was a grown up neighbour playing Sink The Bismark (which sounds like the VHS hobby) on a Spectrum 48K вЂ“ with rubber keys, of course. No, not the one with VHS video recorders and hairy hardcore pornography, but the one with small box shaped electrical contraptions, keyboards and joysticks. It was a time when halting people for drink driving seen as was inhibiting their human rights, the likes of Benny Hill and The Two Ronnies were socially acceptable вЂ“ their antics and attitudes towards women were a default setting for many men, but behind closed curtains across the nation a secretive televisual pastime was emerging. It was a time when child passengers in a car didnвЂ™t wear a seatbelt, a carseat, what? The likes of Keke Rosberg and Barry Sheene were fГЄted for having a crafty smoke on the grid. It was a time when riding a bike without a helmet was de facto. It was a time where I was unknowingly consuming carcinogenic sweets. For me one was happening at a time when Star Wars and Matchbox were ruling my world. Some have resulted in crushed empires and industrial progress, some have been much smaller and only affect those with specific interests. Through the annals of time there have been many revolutions.
