<p>
Vroom is an early car racing game produced by the French software house <a href="http://www.rwapadventures.com/ql_wiki/index.php?title=Pyramide">Pyramide</a> for the Sinclair QL where you take the place of a Formula One driver. The graphics are quite good, being presented in 3D with the view from the driver's cockpit.
</p>
<p>
The QL version is limited to only 5 different circuits, and according to its author, sold around 3200 copies in the UK. This differs from the other Formula 1 racing game for the Sinclair QL, <a href="http://www.rwapadventures.com/ql_wiki/index.php?title=Hyperdrive">Hyperdrive</a> in that there are no hazards on the track, other than the other cars. You can, however, go off the sides of the track, which makes driving more difficult!
</p>
<p>
Oddly, the packaging for QL Vroom shows the title as Wroom as can be seen on the picture!

The advertising blurb detailed:<br />

<li> 100% Machine Code
</li><li> Realistic Racing Simulation as seen from inside F1 car
</li><li> 3-D Perspective Graphics
</li><li> Moving Meandering Tracks
</li><li> 5 Different Circuits
</li><li> Colourful and Elaborate Backgrounds
</li><li> Impressive Sound Effects
</li><li> Keyboard or Joystick Control
</li><li> Wheels and Steering Wheel Movements
</li></ul>
<p>
The author, Daniel Macré went on to release an updated version of Vroom for the Atari ST and Commodore Amiga computers in conjunction with another software house, Lankhor.

<p>
Vroom was an early car racing game produced by the French software house <a href="http://www.rwapadventures.com/ql_wiki/index.php?title=Pyramide">Pyramide</a> for the Sinclair QL where you take the place of a Formula One driver. The graphics are quite good, being presented in 3D with the view from the driver's cockpit.
</p>
<p>
Unfortunately the QL version is limited to only 5 different circuits, although according to its author, it actually sold around 3200 copies in the UK. This differs from the other Formula 1 racing game for the Sinclair QL, <a href="http://www.rwapadventures.com/ql_wiki/index.php?title=Hyperdrive">Hyperdrive</a> in that I do not believe you get hazards on the track, other than the other cars. You can, however, go off the sides of the track., which makes driving more difficult!
</p>
<p>
The author, Daniel Macré went on to release an updated version of Vroom for the Atari ST and Commodore Amiga computers in conjunction with another software house, Lankhor.
