Game Info: Sitting in rush hour traffic, you glance at your watch and know what you gotta do: Pull onto the sidewalk and punch the gas! As your vehicle of choice reaches triple-digit speeds, parking meters tumble out of your path and into oncoming traffic, while pedestrians dive for cover.

What's that siren? Cops! Fight for your rights as the cops ram you from the sides and nearly send you into a brick wall. There's a draw-bridge up ahead--it's raising as you realize that the cops will never catch you if you can jump it. Picking up speed, you send your car high above the Chicago skyline and towards the finish line...
