Race[]
In Moscow 3, racers engage in a three-lap circuit on a track identical to Moscow 1. Despite the track's simplicity, the player is bound to encounter pileups during Lap 1, with some occurring as early as ten seconds into the race. Larger pileups are common around Gorky Park, often instigated by the inept frontrunner AI Ivanov. Colliding with these cars significantly hampers the player's advancement while reshuffling the positions of the AI opponents.
With Indy cars exhibiting top speeds of around 220 mph, the beginner player might struggle with maintaining control if they accelerate excessively. Consequently, it's advised for the player to moderate their speed when attempting overtakes. Keeping a moderate pace will not delay the player's progress, given that the leading AI slow down to 186 mph in Lap 2 and further to 158 mph in Lap 3. Their deceleration creates ample openings for the player to catch up. However, it also allows easy catch-up for AI Rossi, who speeds up to 202 mph.
