Prerelease:Crash Team Racing
This page details prerelease information and/or media for Crash Team Racing.
In a very early stage of development, there are many differences that are listed below:
File:Removed-icons-power-ups-1.png
All are older icons of existing power-ups, except the first one:
-The first is a unused power-up, a spring that makes you hop high for a single time.
-The second is the early icon of the Warp Orb.
-The third is the early icon of the Power Shield.
-The fourth is the early icon of the Bowling Bomb.
-The fifth is the early icon of the Missile Tracker.
-The sixth is the early icon of the Aku Aku Mask.
-The seventh is the early icon of the Turbo
-The hill right after the start line has "COCO" written with flowers.
-The player appears to be in 2nd place, despite having so many racers in front.
-Tiny is the character in use, but his icon is in 3rd place instead of 2nd.
-There is an extra Tiny Tiger near the hill.
-The original Bowling Bomb icon is shown.
-The lap counter used to be separated by a hyphen rather than a slash.
-Early icons of the characters are shown.
-The warp vortex is surrounded by a checkered pattern. This feature actually ended up being too heavy for the PlayStation hardware, so it ended up being removed.
-Roo's Tubes used to look a lot greener and had different structures around the glass ceiling.
-The early Turbo Boost icon is shown.
-The lights of the mine carts in Dragon Mines used to be red instead of white.
-The start lights at the beginning of each race used to look different.
-The start line in each track used to be unique. For some reason, they were all changed to the ribbon saying "CTR" in the final version.
-The old speedometer is shown.
-The removed Spring power-up icon is shown.
-Old icons of characters are shown
-Again, the start line is different from the others.
-Notice how the Wumpa counter shows that the player has 11 Wumpa.
-Despite showing that the player is in 6th place, his icon says that he is in 1th place.

-A removed portion of the track that would go from a ramp into one of four possible tubes.
-Notice that there are no icons of the other racers besides the one from Crash, probably early Time Trial.
-Seeing the final icon of the Speedometer and the power-ups (see below) this was changed very late.
-The old icon of Crash is shown.

-The low-gravity area used to have turbo pads pointing at wrong directions.
-The middle bit had floor textures not used in the final version.
-Right after the low-gravity area, the tunnel leading to the big fall used to be entirely covered in turbo pads, even on the walls and the ceiling.
