so the admin of the crash bandicoot forum i used to moderate posted this on birdsite

i mean, they're not hiding it at all, CTR is in the description, and all over the Steam page

so some scattered thoughts
1. visually, it reminds me a lot of crash nitro kart
and some of the tracks seem to match up pretty heavily with stuff from CNK as well more than CTR (there's sections that exactly match my memory of CNK)
