Rapid Racer is a boat race game from SCEE London Studio. You may know it as Turbo Prop Racing if you're living in the US.
Regional differences
The North American version was renamed to Turbo Prop Racing and also replaces the Apollo 440 soundtrack with one by Loudmouth. As such, the game's menus and movies were revised to reflect these changes.
The Japanese version, however, retains the original Rapid Racer name and its Apollo 440 soundtrack and adds a "Race Edit" debug menu.
