TOCA World Touring Cars

TOCA World Touring Cars

TOCA World Touring Cars (called Jarrett & Labonte Stock Car Racing in the United States and WTC: World Touring Car Championship in Japan) is a racing game developed and published by Codemasters, released in 2000 for the PlayStation and in 2003 only in Europe for the Game Boy Advance. It is part of the TOCA Touring Car series. It includes various touring car championships from around the world, but although it carries the TOCA name, a fully licensed British Touring Car Championship (ToCa) was not included. This upset many fans of the series, but its success continued. The gameplay became more "arcade" overall, and the replacement of qualifying rounds with random starting positions and the elimination of penalties for bad driving made the game much more playable for casual players. Oddly enough, unlike the first two titles in the TOCA series, World Touring Cars was not released in a Microsoft Windows version.
