Street Rod 2: The Next Generation is a classic muscle car management and racing simulator released by California Dreams for DOS in 1991. Set in the summer of 1969, you start with a handful of cash to buy, tune, and race classic American hot rods, working your way up from local drag races to challenging the King for his prized ride.
How to play
Your goal is to build the ultimate street machine and win races at the local burger stand to fund better parts or cars. The game primarily uses a mouse to navigate menus, buy parts, and wrench on your engine. When racing, use the keyboard arrow keys to steer, accelerate, and brake. You will need to use A and Z to shift gears if you are driving a manual transmission.
Tips
- Always check the classifieds on Wednesdays, as that’s when the newspaper updates with new cars and parts.
- Stripping parts like bumpers can reduce weight and improve your acceleration for drag races.
- Ensure your car is fully repaired and tuned before risking it all in a race for pink slips.
