The game then becomes a frantic cat & mouse chase, as the player in second place attempts ram the player ahead of him, wearing out his tyres to such an extent that he'll be forced into the pitstop.

Well, if you play it for any length of time, in which case you're a bit of a masochist. Like a lot of Epyx stuff, it's aged really badly. Compared to, say, IK+, Pitstop II looks really old and tired.
