Penny Racers (Choro Q 64 in Japan) is a kart racing game developed by Locomotive Corporation and published by THQ for the Nintendo 64, part of Takara’s Choro Q toy-car series. Players race cute deformed cars, using weapons and stunts like power slides and barrel rolls, and heavily customize their vehicles from nearly 100 parts — with the top finishers stealing parts from the losers. It supports four-player split-screen and a track editor.
