  • Patent number: 5139267
    Abstract: A racing game utilizing a game board which simulates an auto race course is disclosed. In one embodiment, the invention relates to a board game which provides features similar to a NASCAR auto race. Each player receives a racing car game piece and a crew chip. Upon spinning the dial during the player's turn, the player places his crew chip on the board space corresponding to the spin number and then takes a card from either of two stacks depending on the color of the space occupied by the crew chip. If the player answers correctly the question on the card, he moves his game piece to the space occupied by the crew chip and removes the crew chip. If he answers incorrectly, the crew chip is withdrawn and the game piece remains in the position occupied at the beginning of the turn. Play continues as the game pieces are moved around the board with bonus points and penalties being received depending on the space occupied by the player during the course of the game.
