The story is yet another Grand Prix that doesn’t offer much in the way of explaining what’s going on, but we do get introduced to a trio of newcomers: Metal Sonic from Sonic CD, Fang the Sniper from Sonic Triple Trouble (who isn’t referred to by his Western name of ‘Nack the Weasel’ in the localized versions of this game, oddly enough), and Knuckles the Echidna from Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles. The game makes numerous changes to bring it closer to Mario Kart in terms of madcap racing antics, but the implementation clashes poorly with the drifting mechanics and creates an irritating sequel.
Sonic Drift 2 came out a year after the first game, and got a Western release this time (though only Europe seemed to notice that the name would cause confusion and renamed it Sonic Drift Racing).
