Rodeo Kart (1962)

A well-equipped game with a seldom used scenario: Kart Racing ! Before starting the game the players agree how many times they want to round the racecourse. Each one starts with a different kart and tries to outwit the opponent upon grading up his race gear, either by card play or by investing money. The money has to be earned during the race. You can do this by reaching different spaces on the racecourse or by playing one of the 50 action-cards at the right time, on top of throwing the right number on the die. These cards allow weird actions, such as throwing a hay bale (come with the game- although in plastic...)in front of another cart or hauling it in with a lasso! For certain situations you can even earn a gold medal. Winner is the player with the most points for the best kart, the most money, the most rounds in the lead, the best actions, for holding the gold medal etc. There is also a variant to play as an elimination race, the last one staying upright is the winner !
