Classic Racers Elite Review (PlayStation 4)

For this Classic Racers Elite, We play a game where there was a time when pilots were TRUE pilots. It was the 60’s. The time of Rock’n’Roll, movie stars, and iconic cars. Drive furiously fast on gorgeous landscapes and fight against your monstrous car. A pure Time Attack game where you’re driving cars from the “Gentlemen Drivers” era.
